FSB progress report - Roadmap for addressing financial risks from climate change

The Financial Stability Board has recently published a progress report for its Roadmap for Addressing Financial Risks from Climate Change: see here (pdf). The report notes "encouraging progress" in respect of all four blocks of the Roadmap (firm-level disclosures; data; vulnerabilities analysis; and regulatory and supervisory practices and tools).

With regard to firm-level disclosures, the report describes as a "milestone" the publication of two Exposure Drafts, by the International Sustainability Standards Board, on climate (ED IFRS S2) and general sustainability-related disclosure standards (ED IFRS S1). For an overview of these two Exposure Drafts, and a summary of feedback received as at 7 July 2022, see here (pdf).
