New climate reporting reforms for a stronger financial system

Problem being addressed
Climate change is having an impact on the financial prospects of companies, for better and for worse. It is increasingly recognised that companies need to manage and disclose those risks. This is becoming a mainstream part of corporate governance and strategy. To do this effectively, the financial impacts of climate change need to be identified and disclosed to the market.
