IIGCC response to FCA consultation on proposals to enhance climate-related disclosures by standard listed companies

07.09.21

The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) published a consultation to enhance climate-related disclosures by standard listed issuers on 22 June 2021. The consultation also sought views on select ESG topics in capital markets.

In December 2020, the FCA implemented new disclosure requirements for companies with a UK premium listing, referencing the TCFD recommendations. The measures proposed in this consultation extend the application of these requirements to a wider scope of listed issuers. The rules form part of the wider HM Treasury-led roadmap, which seeks to mandate climate-related disclosures across the UK economy by 2025.

IIGCC submitted a response on the consultation to the FCA on 2 September. Download the response below.
