Essential Elements of the SEC Climate Diclosure Rule

?

Narrative Disclosures

First, the SEC climate disclosure rule require companies to provide a narrative discussion of a registrant’s identification, management, and oversight of climate-related risks. This includes disclosure of your emissions footprint. These disclosures track with the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

Scope 1 and 2 Emissions, Assured Independently

Second, the SEC’s rule will require companies to disclose material scope 1 and 2 emissions. These disclosures will then need to be independently reviewed. This requirement applies to accelerated and large accelerated filers and would be phased in over time.

Financial Statements

Third, the SEC rule requires companies to include a note to their financial statements on the quantitative, financial impacts of severe weather events on their company. This includes capitalized costs, expenditures, and losses from severe weather events such as fires, sea level rise, and flooding. The provision would only apply to financial impacts that are at least 1% of a line item.

SEC Climate Disclosure: An Executive Primer

The direction of travel is now clear. The SEC Climate Disclosure Rule requires companies reporting in the US public markets, including US issuers and foreign private issuers, to disclose their carbon emissions in a standardized way. For large companies, this means new disclosures of scope 1 and 2 emissions for periods as early as 2025 (filed in 2026).

Our SEC Executive Primer gives you the knowledge and context you need to navigate this new regulation and prepare for climate disclosure confidently.

How 黑料海角91入口 helps you prepare for SEC Climate Disclosure

We recommend you begin preparing for SEC climate disclosure now. Starting now will enable you to establish strong controls over your data and greenhouse gas (GHG) reporting. Delaying until the last minute may result in incomplete data, inaccurate reporting, poor controls, and increased litigation and reputational risk. Here are four steps you can take to start building your climate disclosure capabilities now.
01

Accurately calculate your carbon footprint

黑料海角91入口 enables you to turn your existing business data into an accurate carbon footprint. 黑料海角91入口’s integrated Emissions Calculation Engine – aligned with both the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHGP) and the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Fundamentals (PCAF) – leverages a global set of out-of-the-box emission factors and lets you create custom emissions factors unique to your business.
02

Create a single source of truth for your emissions

Before you disclose your carbon footprint, minimize your climate disclosure risks with a platform that provides the transparency and traceability required for assurance. 黑料海角91入口’s Footprint Ledger helps ensure your carbon footprint is auditable, scalable, actionable, and protected with enterprise-grade security. The best way to avoid questions from regulators, as well as greenwashing claims, is to show your work. That’s exactly what our Footprint Ledger is built for.
03

Take full control of your carbon data and disclosures

No matter where you are on your climate journey, you need data you can trust to make business decisions and disclose with confidence. That trust starts and ends with data controls – the policies, processes, and systems you have in place to ensure data security and integrity. Spreadsheet-driven carbon footprints are error-prone, opaque, and difficult to audit. That’s why 黑料海角91入口 is software-driven. 黑料海角91入口 allows you to manage your climate data with the same accuracy, transparency, and control as your financial data.
04

Streamline your carbon accounting and disclosures

黑料海角91入口’s secure, cloud-based platform and robust collaboration tools help simplify and accelerate the measurement of your carbon footprint. Save time by collecting high-quality emissions data directly from suppliers via auditable data requests, even if they are not 黑料海角91入口 users.
