A framework for the voluntary disclosure of climate-related financial risks
This voluntary framework for the disclosure of climate-related financial risks includes both qualitative and quantitative information. The Committee has agreed this framework will be voluntary in nature, with jurisdictions to consider whether to implement it domestically.
Why this matters
This is a Basel Committee framework document on voluntary disclosure of climate-related financial risks. The content explicitly targets banks and establishes a framework (both qualitative and quantitative) for disclosure. It is informational/guidance in nature (voluntary, not binding), making urgency null.
