Client need
Informa requested technical support to undertake a screening and prioritisation exercise as part of a pilot test of the beta version of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) framework. The pilot focused on the first six steps of the Locate, Evaluate, Assess and Prepare (LEAP) approach and included review of the client’s approach to the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) to identify synergies.
The challenge
Putting the TNFD Draft Framework's LEAP approach into practice for different aspects of Informa’s value chain.
Identifying priority locations within Informa’s business lines including key operational locations.
The results
High-level risk assessment based on outputs of piloting the initial stages of the LEAP approach, including risk ratings.
Providing a series of biodiversity, water and waste indices for use in the assessment of different aspects of Informa’s value chain.
Next steps and likely actions needed to complete a full TNFD assessment in future following the update and finalisation of the draft framework.
