Washington, D.C. – Lisa Jacobson, President of the Business Council for Sustainable Energy (BCSE), offered the following statement in response to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)’s adoption of final rules on The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors:
“BCSE supports the SEC’s efforts to respond to investors’ demands for more consistent, comparable, and reliable information about the financial effects of climate-related risks on business operations and how companies are managing those risks. While BCSE members are reviewing the final rule, this action marks an important step in providing increased transparency to investors.”
BCSE previously submitted comments on the SEC’s proposed rule in June 2022.
