3 Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
The TCFD recommendations are a set of voluntary, climate-related financial disclosures for use by companies to provide information to their stakeholders. We were among the first companies to commit to implementing, as fully as practicable, these recommendations as outlined in the TCFD’s implementation path. The recommendations are structured around four elements ‒ Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics and Targets. This Report includes various disclosures relevant for the TCFD recommendations. To highlight this, for each TCFD theme reference is made to relevant sections.
