TCFDsuositukset

TCFDsuositukset refers to the recommendations made by the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures. This task force was established by the Financial Stability Board in 2015 to develop voluntary, consistent, and comparable climate-related financial risk disclosures. The aim is to help organizations and investors understand and manage the financial risks and opportunities associated with climate change.

The TCFD recommendations are structured around four core pillars: Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics and Targets. Under Governance, organizations are encouraged to disclose how climate-related risks and opportunities are overseen by the organization's board and management. Strategy involves disclosing the actual and potential impacts of climate-related risks and opportunities on the organization's businesses, strategy, and financial planning. Risk Management focuses on how organizations identify, assess, and manage climate-related risks. Finally, Metrics and Targets call for the disclosure of the metrics and targets used to assess and manage relevant climate-related risks and opportunities.

These recommendations are intended to be applicable across all sectors and geographies. They have been widely adopted by companies and financial institutions globally, as well as by governments and regulators, to improve the transparency of climate-related financial information. The TCFD framework helps to integrate climate considerations into mainstream financial decision-making.
