This document offers a structured process to identify, measure and value environmental (natural capital) risks and opportunities, and helps to generate trusted, credible and actionable information that can be used to inform financial decisions.

This paper outlines the methodology for a proposed 2°C scenario analysis framework, and the resulting ranking of oil and gas companies based on their exposure to climate-related financial risk.

This briefing note sets out a 3-year Routemap for integrating the TCFD recommendations. It has been developed in consultation with a range of clients, companies and key agencies. A framework for action is presented comprising a set of practical steps that can be taken over a three-year period.

This report surveys the current state of asset-level climate data in 9 sectors. While only a sample of existing data across 9 climate-relevant sectors, this report answers questions like: Which climate performance data are already available in the market for the most important climate related sectors? What are the key underlying sources for this data and what are the implications for data quality and reliability? What are the key barriers for financial institutions and policymakers in terms of access? What is the way forward to create comprehensive and cost-effective access to climate data?

This technical brief unpacks the process through which raw climate data is transformed into usable metrics, such as future temperature projections, to help financial, corporate and government users incorporate climate-based analytics into their physical risk assessment and disclosure processes.

A review of disclosures from 50 asset owners in France in response to Art. 173. The analysis shows only a quarter of respondents included substantial analysis and metrics on their exposure to physical impacts of climate change and discusses the approaches used by those that did assess physical climate risk.

Building on the current momentum behind the TCFD recommendations, ICAEW, in association with The Carbon Trust, have published this practical guidance for organisations wanting to learn more about the recommendations and steps to implementation, in the style of FAQs, for organisations considering how to get started.

This blog article discusses how Science-Based Targets are aligned with the requirements of the TCFD disclosure recommendations.

This guide sets out a practical framework to support asset owners in their efforts to implement the TCFD recommendations. Specifically, the guide focuses on the ‘actions’ that asset owners can take to improve processes around governance, strategy, risk management and metrics/targets.

The latest report by the AODP assesses the insurance sector response to the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and features an index of the world’s 80 largest insurers rated on their approach to climate-related risks and opportunities.

This framework aligns the AODP Global Pension Sector Questionnaire 2018 with TCFD recommendations to enable pension funds (including sovereign pension funds) to prepare, structure and evaluate their TCFD-aligned reporting.

This report demonstrates how to capture the complex reality of today’s diverse and intertwined “eco-agrifood” systems in order to evaluate their performance in a holistic manner to support decision-making, avoiding the risks and limitations inherent in simplistic metrics such as “per hectare productivity”.
