About TCFD
In 2015, the Financial Stability Board created the Task Force for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and in 2017 released its final climate related financial disclosure recommendations. These recommendations are structured around four thematic areas that represent core elements of how companies operate: governance, strategy, risk management, and metrics and targets. They are supported by recommended disclosures that allow investors and other stakeholders to better understand how reporting organizations think about and assess climate-related risks and opportunities.
