Unpacking TCFD: Progress, Prospects and Seeing Both Sides on Disclosure

In light of the FSB Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) efforts, we explore how these recommendations have impacted corporate performance in disclosing climate risks and setting forward-looking targets. This enlivened debate will bring together an asset owner and corporate player to share perspectives on implementing TCFD recommendations in a quest to turn the dial on increased transparency.

• What successes, failures, and barriers are we seeing from TCFD recommendation integration across industries?
• Where and why are there gaps between the recommendations and what we are witnessing on the ground from finance and industry?
• Is disclosure driving industry to prioritize projects and investments that have lower climate risk?
• Will uptake facilitate the necessary changes to ensure we stay below 2 degrees?
