Virtual workshop on transition risk analysis resource toolkit
22-23 November 2021
As part of the South Africa-UK PACT project on Aligning South Africa’s climate-related financial disclosure with global best practice, a user-friendly climate-related risk and opportunity analysis toolkit is being developed to address barriers to climate-related disclosures. The toolkit aims to help organisations use climate-related information to make better investment decisions.
The toolkit, which will be publicly available when finalised, will include guidance documents, training manuals and data sources to help identify transition risks and opportunities related to climate change. In attending these training sessions you will hands-on training on what guides, data and tools are included in the toolkit and how to make use of the toolkit.
We are delighted to invite you to attend training sessions on the transition risk analysis resource toolkit for pension funds and asset consultants and asset managers. The toolkit will not only assist asset owners in obtaining the information necessary to understand whether their investment managers have adequately considered climate related risk and opportunities, but will also assist asset managers to overcome data limitations when generating appropriate data to support climate-related risk assessment at a portfolio and asset level.
