The goal for this document was to create a practical guide to implementation of Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) reporting by corporates.

In keeping with our broader advisory approach, we have tried to be pragmatic and candid, addressing ESG matters from the perspective of the boardroom. What is TCFD, how should you approach it, and how will it be used by your most important stakeholders – now, and in the future?

As electorates grow more sensitive to ESG issues, and investors grow more sophisticated in their scrutiny, so these issues are becoming strategic disciplines rather than compliance processes. This is the advisory space that we occupy, expert in both the technical aspects of sustainability and the strategic considerations of public company life.

When planning for TCFD and other ESG-related reporting, we suggest that our clients consider not only what investors are asking today, but also what they will require in 12 months’ time... because the underlying workflows for many of these disclosures will require a year or more to deliver.

This document aims to help you discover:

• What the FCA’s listing rule requirement on TCFD disclosures will mean for you and your company

• Dates you need to keep in mind

• What is requested, and what is expected

• How the TCFD is viewed by investors

If you have any questions about the insights or would like to learn more about how we can help you meet reporting requirements, please get in touch by emailing us at hello@sillion.co.uk
