After decades of investor demand, the United States is now more closely aligned with its global peers through the adoption of a mandatory climate disclosure framework for public companies. On March 6, 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission adopted the rule, “The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors”. The rule responds to investors’ need for clear, consistent, and comparable climate reporting from public companies. Standardized disclosures in financial filings will bring significant improvements to the current patchwork of voluntary disclosures and help investors make more informed capital allocation and investment stewardship decisions.

So what should companies and investors know about these new requirements?

For twenty years Ceres has championed climate disclosure regulations. Join us for this webinar with Ceres CEO and President Mindy Lubber, SEC Division of Corporation Finance Director Erik Gerding, SEC Chief Accountant Paul Munter, and others.

In this session, participants will:

– Explore perspectives on implementation and how investors will use the data

– Get answers to critical questions about the context of the rule within the evolving disclosure landscape
