Thibaut Ghirardi, Managing Director France, 2° Investing Initiative said: “The quality of the financial institutions that responded to this year’s International Climate Reporting Awards illustrates the growing focus by the financial sector on this topic. While various climate reporting and disclosure frameworks are now well established, what really matters is how they are implemented. In this respect, climate reporting and its future developments are absolutely decisive, and we are delighted to help spur progress on this topic in France and internationally.”

Building on leading global standards, including the Task force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and the EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive, the Awards aim to recognize financial institutions that integrate climate-related considerations into their reporting and business practices. For the first time this year, the Awards were closely integrated with the new Climate Transparency Hub (CTH) in order to promote transparency and best reporting practices around the globe.
