We will discuss the growing relevance of climate change risk, its financial impact on banks' real-life challenges, and how banks address these challenges of data, measurement, workflow, technology, and disclosure requirements.

- The International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) has delayed publication of its first two disclosure standards until the end of June 2023 to align with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).
- IOSCO has proposed a global assurance framework for sustainability-related corporate reporting.
- And the Basel Committee plans to consult on a Pillar 3 disclosure framework by the end of the year, noting that this should complement the ISSB's work.
