UK: EAC report - 'Greening Finance: embedding sustainability in financial decision making'

The Environmental Audit Committee has today published its report Greening Finance: embedding sustainability in financial decision making: see here or here (pdf). The conclusions and recommendations are available here. The report calls on the Government to set a deadline for all listed companies and large asset owners to report on climate-related risks and opportunities (in line with the TCFD recommendations) on a comply or explain basis by 2022 (with appropriate changes to the UK Corporate Governance Code and UK Stewardship Code).
