Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)

Companies, decision makers and financial markets need clear, comprehensive, high-quality information on the impacts of climate change . With the adoption of the ordinance on mandatory climate disclosure, the Federal Council decided that large Swiss companies should follow the recommendations by the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). TCFD established a framework to adapt current business practice in terms of Governance, Strategy, Risk Management and Metrics and Targets. The initiative has quickly become the indisputable best practice standard designed to change companies’ management and reporting of risks and opportunities presented by rising temperatures, climate-related policy, and emerging technologies in our rapidly changing world.

Swiss Climate can assist you in the development and establishment of a company-specific climate disclosure that complies with the TCFD recommendations and is aligned with Swiss-specific legal requirements of the counterproposal to the Responsible Business Initiative (RBI). At Swiss Climate we can support you in the implementation of the TCFD recommendations across all thematic elements: Governance, Strategy, Risk Management and Metrics and Targets.
