Location Data “Crucial” to Identifying Nature Risks - Lessons learned by investors from climate risk management can be applied to nature where “urgency is paramount”. Investors are prioritising location-specific data as they seek to use the recommendations of the Taskforce for Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) framework to “conceptualise” their nature risks, impacts and dependencies. Speaking at ESG Investor’s Nature Data for Institutional Investors event on 2 November, Miriam Benarey, Associate Director, Sustainability & Stewardship at Impax Asset Management (AM), said the TNFD framework is key to the firm assessing the impact of its investments on nature, which involves evaluating its exposure to companies “active in sensitive geographic areas”. The TNFD framework also provides detailed guidance on the four phases of the LEAP approach designed to be used by an assessment team in an organisation: Locate, Evaluate, Assess and Prepare.“The location-specific element, where operations and value chain activities take place near biodiversity-sensitive areas, is crucial to conceptualising our approach to nature,” said Benarey. “This leads to the importance of corporate geolocation disclosure, which we greatly appreciate being included in the TNFD recommendations, extending what we’ve seen in the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures’ (TCFD) framework.” The TNFD’s final recommendations, which were released in September, included 14 recommended disclosures across four categories: governance; strategy; risk and impact management; and metrics and targets. One of the TNFD’s four strategy disclosures requires reporting on “the locations of assets and/or activities in the organisation’s direct operations and, where possible, upstream and downstream value chain(s) that meet the criteria for priority locations. Benarey told onlookers that Impax AM had focused a lot of attention on assessing the physical climate risks of its investments, which, like nature-related impacts, are “highly location-specific”. The firm, therefore, has learned “valuable lessons” from its focus on physical climate risks that are applicable to assessing its nature-related risks, impacts and dependencies, she said. “Initially, our climate-related company engagements didn’t yield the desired outcomes,” she said, noting that to address this Impax AM developed a proprietary, geolocation-based scenario analysis tool using data obtained through its engagements. “Geolocation disclosure is key to addressing both physical climate risk and nature impact,” she said, noting that investors require precise physical location data from companies to make sound, long-term financial decisions. Systematic engagement According to Benarey, the second lesson Impax AM learned from its experiences with climate risk was the need for “systematic engagement to shape the landscape”. “We co

Did you know that only 54% of organizations have a disaster recovery plan (DRP) in place? Technical Risk Management is one of the most undervalued components in the CIO role. Rather than viewing disaster recovery as a response to adversity, use unexpected challenges as a catalyst to inspire your team to build stronger and more robust systems.

The Climate Risk Management Guideline (the Guideline) published on July 4 by the Autorité des marchés financiers (Québec) (AMF) is a new adoption by a Canadian regulator of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards, which were developed to facilitate consistent sustainability disclosure. While the AMF’s Guideline applies to licensed insurers, financial services cooperatives, licensed trust companies and other licensed deposit-taking institutions under the AMF’s jurisdiction, this development may be indicative of the path Canadian securities regulators will take as they finalize forthcoming mandatory climate disclosure rules for publicly listed companies. The final version of the Guideline incorporates the ISSB standards, namely IFRS S1 (general requirements) and IFRS S2 (climate-related requirements). This represents a significant change from the AMF’s 2023 draft guideline, which was less complex and instead relied on the recommendations of the FSB Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). The TCFD has long been one of the most credible references for climate disclosure and while the ISSB based its standards on this framework, it went further by requiring mandatory disclosure of indirect greenhouse gas emissions, among other things. https://lnkd.in/g_tF34a9
