As climate change challenges intensify, climate-related financial reporting has become essential for businesses to demonstrate sustainability, manage risks, and comply with evolving regulations.
Finance, asset, and fund managers play a critical role in ensuring organisations provide accurate, actionable, and auditable data on building performance, operations, and environmental impact.
What Is Climate-Related Financial Reporting?
Climate-related financial reporting involves disclosing the financial impacts of climate change on a company’s operations. This includes:
- Physical risks (e.g., extreme weather events)
- Transition risks (e.g., policy changes, market shifts)
Accurate reporting helps stakeholders—including investors, regulators, and customers—make informed decisions about a business’s sustainability and resilience.
The Role of Finance, Asset, and Fund Managers
- Finance managers integrate climate risks into financial planning and reporting.
- Asset managers focus on operational efficiency and sustainability of physical assets.
- Fund managers assess climate risks in investment strategies to ensure portfolio resilience.
These managers must collect and analyse data on energy use, carbon emissions, and environmental impact—ensuring it is both actionable and auditable.
