What you will learn
This course introduces the area of climate risk and reporting and what it means for finance and business professionals today. By completing this course, you will be able to:
- define climate change risks, including physical risk, transition risk, and the financial implications associated with these risks
- explain the stakeholder pressure for change in terms of reporting and climate-related disclosures
- describe the main reporting frameworks for climate risk disclosures
- understand how organisations can improve their reporting and climate change analysis processes.
About this course
Climate change impacts every organisation, and the risks and opportunities for organisations need to be understood and managed. Professional accountants and finance teams are currently underutilised in this area, but our skills and knowledge are essential in building better impact management.
In this course, we will be looking at the external forces relating to climate change that, as professional accountants, we will have to address in order to build organisational resilience, cause less damage to the planet and help people live well.
