英国FCA提议对上市公司实行更严格的气候相关信息披露
英国金融行为监管局(Financial Conduct Authority,简称FCA)发布新提案,未来英国优质的上市公司需要更严格地披露与气候相关的财务信息。
根据计划,所有相关公司都必须按照气候相关财务披露工作组(TCFD)的要求披露与气候相关的信息,或者给出拒绝披露的原因。后续该计划可能会扩大范围,以覆盖更广泛的证券发行机构。
FCA首席执行官、即将出任英格兰银行(BoE)行长的Andrew Bailey在评论该提案时表示,气候变化对全球经济前景、社会以及我们的自然环境构成了广泛且严重的威胁。
他谈道:“我们提出的改变将有助于提升市场所需的透明度,以便能够评估企业在适应气候变化风险方面的成效。信息披露的改善将更好地支持资产定价,并使投资者能够在配置资金方面做出更明智的选择——这将有助于向低碳经济的转型。”
ICAEW金融服务委员会技术战略业务群总监Philippa Kelly表示: “希望这些信息能够帮助投资者和资产所有者做出更好的决策。提案也会帮助银行深入了解这些公司面临的风险,并将其考虑到相关的贷款和融资计划中,以确保企业可持续地增长。”
4月30日本周四晚20点,ICAEW中国特别邀请上海家化首席财务官兼董事会秘书韩敏女士从财务、环境和社会三大方面分享可持续发展与财务管理的联系及相关实际案例。欢迎扫描下方二维码预约参与。
FCA proposes tougher climate disclosures for listed firms
More stringent climate-related financial disclosure rules could be imposed on premium listed companies after the Financial Conduct Authority published new proposals.
Under the plans, all suchcompanies will have to either make climate-related disclosures consistent with the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) or explain why they have not done so. This could then be extended at a later date to cover a wider gamut of issuers.
Commenting on the proposals Andrew Bailey, FCA Chief Executive and soon to be Governor of the Bank of England, said:“Climate change presents a serious and wide-ranging threat to global economic prospects, society more broadly and our natural environment.
“The changes we propose will help to provide the transparency the market needs to be able to assess how well companies are adjusting to the risks of climate change.Improved disclosures will support better asset pricing and enable investors to make more informed choices about where to allocate their capital – which will ultimately support the transition to a low carbon economy.
Philippa Kelly, ICAEW’s Director, Technical Strategy Business Group, Financial Services Faculty, said: ” It is hoped that this information will help investors – and asset owners make better decisions.It will also help banks understand more about the risks these companiesare facing and to price that into lending and financing to help ensuresustainable and appropriate growth.”
