Task Force on Climate-related
Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
Greenhouse gas concentrations are at their highest
in two million years and emissions are continuing
to rise. We all need to work together in helping the
world transition to net zero and RWS is committed
to helping achieve this. In 2021 we became a
signatory to the Task Force on Climate-related
Financial Disclosures and for the first time disclosed
against the framework, although voluntary, and
have continued to work towards aligning ourselves
and adopting the TCFD ahead of it becoming
mandatory in April 2022.
Following our decision last year to start reporting in line with TCFD
early, these disclosures include our actions taken to date to align our
climate risk disclosures with the TCFD recommendations. Doing so
will enable our stakeholders to understand the ways in which climate
change is affecting our business now, and in the future, as well as the
steps that we are taking.
In meeting the requirements of Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) listing
rule 9.8.6R in respect of TCFD we have concluded that:
•
•
We comply fully with recommended disclosures 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 10
We comply partially with recommended disclosures 4, 5, 9 and 11
We expect to be fully compliant by next year when reporting becomes
mandatory for RWS.
