The Taskforce for Climate Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) is an international scheme that was established in 2015.
Its purpose is to develop recommendations for more effective climate disclosures which can help promote more informed investment, credit, and insurance underwriting decisions.
It is envisaged the climate credentials of those organisations adhering to TCFD’s recommended disclosures will be more robust.
The UK Government has endorsed the TCFD’s recommendations, citing them as a playing a major role in the 2019 Green Finance Strategy. The HM Treasury has produced a roadmap outlining the intended path towards mandatory climate-related disclosures in the UK, with the scope widening year on year.
The UK Government have also acknowledged the interactions between Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) framework and the disclosures recommended by the TCFD. It can therefore be expected that the two will become more aligned and intertwined into the future.
