“It’s time to go beyond disclosure in 2023 and towards alignment of corporate business models and portfolios of financial institutions with publicly agreed policy goals like the Paris Climate Agreement or recently the Montreal Agreement on Biodiversity. Companies need to set targets and implement transition plans to explain how they will become consistent with these objectives.”
