 The TCFD is committed to market transparency and stability. We believe that better   information will allow companies to incorporate climate-related risks and opportunities   into their risk management and strategic planning processes. As this occurs, companies’   and investors’ understanding of the financial implications associated with climate change   will grow, empowering the markets to channel investment to sustainable and resilient   solutions, opportunities, and business models.
