Task force on climate-related financial disclosures: 2019 status report

This status report provides an overview of the extent to which companies in their 2018 reports included information aligned with the core TCFD recommendations published in June 2017. To better understand current climate-related financial disclosure practices and how they have evolved, the Task Force reviewed reports for over 1,100 companies from 142 countries in eight industries over a three-year period. In addition, the Task Force conducted a survey on companies’ efforts to implement the TCFD recommendations as well as users’ views on the usefulness of climate-related financial disclosures for decision-making.
