Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
Source: TCFD website
The Challenge
There is no standardised approach to disclose climate-related financial
information.
Investors, lenders and insurers are not able to evaluate which companies will
survive or thrive as the climate changes, and as decarbonisation regulations,
new technologies and behavioral change emerge.
What is the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures?
The Financial Stability Board (FSB) developed TCFD with the goal to
drive more informed investment, credit and insurance
underwriting decisions and increase stakeholder understanding
of climate-related risks.
The TCFD seeks to develop recommendations for voluntary
climate-related financial disclosures that are consistent,
comparable, reliable, clear, and efficient, and provide decision-useful
information to lenders, insurers and investors.
31
members
chosen by the FSB, including
both users and preparers of
disclosures from across the
G20 constituency covering a
range of economic sectors
and financial markets
Help firms to:
Chaired by
Michael Bloomberg
TCFD’s Mission
• The TCFD considers the physical and transition risks associated
with climate change in developing recommendations and what
constitutes effective financial disclosures across industries.
• As companies and investors greater understand the financial
implications of climate change, investments would be channeled
into sustainability solutions, opportunities and business models.
Understand what
financial markets want
from climate disclosure
Align their disclosures
with investors’ needs

Lessons learned:
• Team. Integrating climate risk into an
organisation is a cross-functional,
transformational and business-driven
exercise that will require collaboration
with unique skillsets and perspectives.
• Strategy-driven. Risk appetite and
limits should be aligned to company
strategy and have sufficient monitoring
and controls.
• Data. Design with an end-state in mind
and develop a data strategy related to
the procurement, storage and
unification of environmental data for
financial and non-financial reporting.
• Learn. Ask a lot of questions and think
of climate risk as an ‘add-on’ existing

Risk mitigation
Ultimately, climate change must be built into the organisation’s risk management framework. This requires embedding it into
the risk management lifecycle:
To identify risks, granular
analysis of customers and
clients by region and sector is
useful
Bifurcating between physical
and transition risks makes the
analysis more precise and
actionable
Understanding the direct
impacts of physical risks on
the organisation’s operations
and third parties is essential
In order to capture climate risk
within existing processes and
standards, organisations will need
to re-evaluate their risk taxonomies
to determine whether climate risk is
material
These granular components will
need to be examined across
portfolios to inform credit limits and
internal ratings to maintain prudent
risk management
Develop and maintain a set of risk
metrics that capture their own and
the counterparty’s climate change
risks
Be able to aggregate those metrics
to enable board and senior
management reporting and
oversight
Risk reporting can be linked to
existing portfolios, concentration
and exposure threshold and limits
Climate risk analysis needs to
support decision-making on how
to manage climate risks
This may range from:
– Altering exposure to certain
sectors or region
– Pricing of new loans and
underwriting of investments
– Making decisions on how to
deploy capital
24. Risk identification and assessment
Source: Climate Risk Management for Financial Institutions, Actuaries Institute’s Climate Change Working Group, November 2016 23
Management and stakeholders broadly identify exposure using risk statements
Example of a risk statement: "we face a risk from increasing levels of extreme weather events damaging our
transmission and distribution lines"
Based on the risk statement, assign a risk score equivalent to the likelihood of the risk multiplied by the impact
of the risk
Exposures on physical and non-physical assets related to the companies need to be taken into account. Assets
which are owned by customers and funded by the companies should also be considered
Non-physical assets include:
– Customer and staff safety
– Financial exposures such as market risk
– Responsible investment and corporate social responsibility
– Reputational risk and loss of shareholder value
– Reputational risk and loss of shareholder value
Key stakeholders then form a collective view of the priority of the risk – a plan will be developed in response to
priority risk
Non-priority risk can still be identified and monitored going forward
Exposures on physical and non-physical assets related to the companies need to be considered

Principle Based Taxonomy, 27 December 2019 and 3Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change, Global trends in climate change litigation, 4 July 2019
Physical risk is the threat to tangible
assets, which would in turn affect intangible
assets1
It directly impacts assets, financials,
earnings or reputation due to the increased
frequency or severity of adverse climate-
related events2
Physical risk Transition risk
Transitioning to a lower-carbon economy
may entail extensive policy, legal,
technology, and market changes to
address mitigation and adaptation
requirements related to climate change.1
Depending on the nature, speed, and focus
of these changes, transition risks may pose
varying levels of financial and
reputational risk to organisations.1

Physical risks Generation Transmission/Sale to end-users
Chronic
Higher air temperature, wind speeds and humidity
Nuclear and thermal: Lowered generation efficiency or decreased integrated
gasification combined cycle (IGCC) system efficiency (converting coal to gas)
Precipitation: reduced cable capacity or potential total
loss of supply locally (overhead lines, underground cables)
Sea-level rise and storm surges could damage coastal
infrastructure
Acute
Extreme events such as melting, floods
Low temperature and cold outbreaks result in more demand for heating
(extreme demand surges)
Higher air temperature (drought) increases the risk of
wildfires that damage distribution networks, potentially
leading end consumers to opt for Distributed Energy
Resources (DERs)

Electric utilities can carefully assess climate-related risks and opportunities to inform decisions about future sustainability and
profitability..
Electric utilities face significant transition risk from the disruptive impact of the policy
and markets shift to a low-carbon energy system.
Oil, gas and coal extraction, as key suppliers to electric utilities face physical risks from
affected water supplies.
Both transition risks and physical risks impact operating costs and asset valuation of
organisations engaged in energy activities.
The regulatory and competitive landscape for electric utilities differs significantly
between jurisdictions, making assessment of climate-related risks very challenging.
Organisations within the Energy Group require major financial investments in fixed
assets and supply chain management and have longer business strategy/capital
allocation planning horizons relative to many other sectors.
Electric utilities are particularly sensitive
to physical, policy, or technological
changes affecting:
Water
availability
Emissions

Fossil fuel
demand

Resilience
Adaptation
Transfer
or hedge
Reducing exposure to risk
e.g., reducing the company’s own carbon
footprint
Reducing damage or cost after
exposure
e.g., encouraging all power and utilities
companies to buy property insurance to
prepare for severe weather impacts
Aligning companies' business plan
e.g., in order to withstand severe weather events that
have flow-on financial impacts, power and utilities
companies can consider to hold an additional capital
buffer
Transferring or hedging the
risk to third parties
Insurance is the common practice to
transfer risk.
e.g., insurance for renewable energy
solutions, to provide natural hedge to the
business growth

Describe the organisation’s processes for identifying and assessing climate-related risks
Organisations should describe their risk management processes for identifying and assessing climate-related risks. An important aspect
of this description is how organisations determine the relative significance of climate-related risks in relation to other risks.
Organisations should describe whether they consider existing and emerging regulatory requirements related to climate change as well
as other relevant factors considered.
Organisations should also consider disclosing the following:
– Processes for assessing the potential size and scope of identified climate-related risks and
– Definitions of risk terminology used or references to existing risk classification frameworks used.

Summary of TCFD recommendations on risk management
Organisations should describe their risk management processes for identifying and assessing climate-related risks. An
important aspect of this description is how organisations determine the relative significance of climate-related risks in
relation to other risks.
Organisations should describe whether they consider existing and emerging regulatory requirements related to climate
change as well as other relevant factors considered.
Organisations should also consider disclosing the following:
– Processes for assessing the potential size and scope of identified climate-related risks and
– Definitions of risk terminology used or references to existing risk classification frameworks used.
Describe the organisation’s
processes for identifying and
assessing climate-related risks
Organisations should describe their processes for managing climate-related risks, including how they make decisions
to mitigate, transfer, accept or control those risks
In addition, organisations should describe their processes for prioritising climate-related risks, including how
materiality determinations are made within their organisations

In a world of uncertainty, scenarios
are intended to explore alternatives
that may significantly alter the basis

Task Force on Climate-related Financial
Disclosures
Description of scenario analysis
Scenario analysis is a strategic planning tool to help an
organisation understand how it might perform in different future
states
It is designed to embrace complexity and uncertainty,
allowing decision makers to evaluate the organisation’s
flexibility, resilience, or robustness across a range of potential
outcomes
Scenario analysis is not designed to produce rigid predictions
nor irrational futures, but is designed to consider possible
and plausible alternative futures
In the context of climate change, the TCFD recommends the
use of climate scenario analysis to help firms to explore the
potential range of climate-related outcomes and analyze the
impact of these alternative states of the world on the business
in a structured manner, as well as how the business may
respond in these circumstances

Scope of application, whether applied
throughout the whole value chain or on
specific business units
Examples of business impact/ effects
involved in scenario analysis include:
Earnings: impact on earnings and how
it is expressed (e.g., EBITDA,

Costs: implications on operating/
production cost and development
Revenues: implications for revenue
from key products and services

57. How TCFD addresses different organisations’ capacity to perform
scenario analysis
Source: TCFD website and 2021 Implementing Guidance 56
TCFD was developed with the understanding that companies have different
approaches to climate-related scenario analysis and different disclosure
capabilities.
Most organisations are expected to perform qualitative scenario
analyses and will provide more qualitative disclosures.
Development of guidance Qualitative disclosure
To address concerns about burden on smaller organisations, TCFD
established a threshold for organisations to consider conducting more robust
scenario analysis to assess the resilience of their strategies (organisations with
annual revenue greater than USD1 billion in the four non-financial groups).
Recommends organisations that may be more significantly affected by
transition risk and/or physical risk consider more in-depth, quantitative
disclosure around scenario analysis.
Organisations may use existing external scenarios or their own, in-house
modeling capabilities depending on their planning needs and resources.
Robust scenario analysis
In-depth consideration on
qualitative disclosure
May start with qualitative scenario narratives
or storylines to help management explore the
potential range of climate change implications

illustrate potential pathways and outcomes

58. Overview of the process of climate scenario analysis
Source: TCFD, 2021 Implementing Guidance 57
Organisation should consider discussing the implications of different policy assumptions, macro-economic trends, energy
pathways and technology assumptions used in publicly available climate-related scenarios to assess the resilience of their
strategies.
For the climate-related scenarios used, consider providing information on the following factors to allow investors and others to
understand the procedure of gaining valuable insight from scenarios analysis:
Critical input parameters, assumptions and analytical
choices for the climate-related scenarios used, particularly
as they relate to key areas such as policy assumptions,
energy deployment pathways, technology pathways and
related timing assumptions

Transmission
channels
Transition Physical
Direct As climate policies penalize fossil fuel production as well as the
production and use of emission-intensive goods and services,
organizations will face risks from:
Stranded assets
Negative movements in bonds and equity valuation
Changes in cash flows
Deterioration in the customer credit risk profile (in the affected
sector)
In contrast, climate policies will promote organizations involved in the
production of goods and services that assist in reducing emissions.
Corporate balance sheets will be impacted by acute physical
events e.g., precipitation, flood, or wildfire; or by chronic physical
effects, e.g., flood risk due to sea level rise.
The direct economic impact could be:
Loss of output
Costs of repair
Indirect Climate policies will also have broader, indirect consequences
by:
Changing the prices of a broad basket of goods and services
Affecting aggregate patterns of demand and supply
Long-term chronic changes in climate patterns (e.g., sea level
and mean temperature rises) as well as the broader impact of
extreme events will impact aggregate demand and output.
These broader economic costs may arise from spillovers, such
as disruption to a supply chain or support and adaptation costs
borne by the sovereign, which would then impact inflation,
interest rates and long-term productivity.
Examine both physical and transition transmission channels and identify potential exposures to climate-related risks

The socioeconomic context lays out the
scenario backdrop, defining the economy’s tolerance
for climate change.
The climate policy
landscape is
represented by policy
ambition, which is in large
part influenced by
socioeconomic
challenges.
Technological evolution influences the
economy’s ability to effect and cope with transition.
Policy has an important role in facilitating technological
evolution and diffusion.
The emission pathways
represent trajectories of GHG
concentrations in the atmosphere.
These concentrations result from
the interaction of the three
previous factors and influence the
scale and nature of physical
climate impacts. Different
pathways reinforce or abate the
socioeconomic challenges.
Organisations may

68
Robust scenarios to accommodate
multiple scenarios and applicability
to various sectors
Determine availability of scenarios in different dimensions:
Physical risk and transitional risk: Assess whether the scenarios cover both types of risk and their level of interaction
Assessment of different scenarios: Use plausible scenarios, including a 2°C scenario and a no-policy scenario
Outcome granularity: Assess applicability of scenario outcomes by sector, geography, etc.
Option 1: Public Scenarios Option 2: Internal Scenarios Option 3: Vendor Scenarios
Developed by scientific community and
NGOs to assess climate change from
different perspectives, e.g. CD-Links, EIA
In-house development to obtain risk factors
associated to specific sectors and climate
metrics
Credibility, low cost, transparency
Low granularity of sectors or flexibility
Customization to organisation
Complex development of assumptions
Detailed outputs and
visualization tools
Low standardization, vendor costs
Most climate scenarios have been developed by government agencies and academics. Some vendors have developed their own
scenarios, whereas others consolidate available scenarios and data to develop modeling and reporting capabilities. Below are
some examples:
NGFS: Scenarios were made available in June 2020 and these will be leveraged for the Bank of England 2021 biennial
exploratory scenario
IPCC: Public scenarios from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Scenarios start from projections of global
greenhouse gas emissions to derive climate and socioeconomic projections. Data includes atmospheric composition, land use,

analyze the change in the chosen risk metrics for a given scenario
Source: Climate Financial Risk Forum Guide 2020, Scenario Analysis Chapter 75
Choose impact assessment tools to assess financial impact
Macro-economic impact assessment tools Asset or company specific impact assessment tools
Organisations regularly use these tools to assess the resiliency of
their business model to macroeconomic stresses in the financial
system over the capital planning horizon (~3-5 years)
These models can be used to quantify the impact on market and
credit risk exposures of both instantaneous and prolonged
macroeconomic stresses in the financial system
Input variables can typically include GDP, unemployment, interest
rates, currency rates and commodity prices, as well as assumptions
on asset devaluations (equity prices and credit spreads)
Outputs of these approaches can typically include the P&L impact
from an instantaneous market shock, as well as changes in reserve
levels to account for increased losses on lending activities.
Require more involved analysis and are resource-intensive, meaning they
are typically applicable for smaller portfolios
Characterised by high granularity which considers company- and/or
geography-specific idiosyncrasies
These tools are likely to vary more significantly from firm-to-firm, e.g.,
banks may use credit rating models, asset managers may use asset allocation
models and insurance companies will have models to project natural disasters.
