Response to BCBS on Principles on Climate-related Financial Risk

On February 16, 2022, ISDA and the Global Financial Markets Association (GFMA) submitted a joint response to the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s (BCBS) consultation on principles for the effective management and supervision of climate-related financial risks. The associations welcome guidance to foster alignment of supervisory standards and practices for addressing climate-related financial risks. The associations support the BCBS’s intention to achieve a balance in fostering effective risk management practices for climate-related financial risks and provide a common baseline for internationally active banks and supervisors, while maintaining sufficient flexibility to support necessary innovation in a fast-evolving landscape.
