Details

This crib sheet sets out a four-step process for collecting internal data for climate scenario analysis. It explains how to define your data needs, identify sources, map existing information and address gaps. You will learn how to bring together data on climate hazards, exposure and vulnerability from teams such as risk, finance, operations, estates, procurement, HR and sustainability. The guide also covers basic data checks, the use of proxies and the importance of clear ownership and documented assumptions. You do not need perfect data to begin. By improving data through routine business processes, you can build a consistent evidence base for stronger risk assessments, decisions and TCFD-aligned disclosures.
