Recent sustainability developments
Sep 30, 2019
A summary of recent developments at the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Climate Disclosure Standards Board (CDSB).
The Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Climate Disclosure Standards Board (CDSB) have jointly released the TCFD Good Practice Handbook, a complement to the TCFD Implementation Guide, released in May 2019. The handbook provides real-world examples of TCFD reporting to help companies better understand how they can more effectively communicate with investors about the financially material climate-related risks and opportunities they face.
The CDSB has also launched a climate-related financial disclosure e-learning platform designed to help organizations fill the knowledge gap and enhance their disclosures of climate-related information. Hosted on the TCFD Knowledge Hub, the e-learning courses will be CPD accredited and suitable for companies, investors and finance professionals.
