Description

It's time to equip yourself

The SEC has adopted rules to enhance and standardize climate-related disclosures by public companies and in public offerings.

The SEC rules set clear disclosure requirements, providing investors with consistent, comparable and reliable information about the financial impact of a changing climate on organizations.

We delve into the finalized rule details and what practitioners should be doing now to prepare.

Highlights

  • Applicability and compliance dates

  • Disclosure inside the financial statements (Regulation S-X requirements) and practitioner considerations in the audit
  • GHG attestation considerations
