Morrison & Foerster LLP (MoFo) · Above Board: How Will the SEC Approach a New Framework for Climate Disclosures?
In this episode of the Above Board podcast, Morrison & Foerster partner and host Dave Lynn speaks with Alfredo ("Fredo") Silva, San Francisco partner and co-chair of the firm's Social Enterprise and Impact Investing Group, on the SEC's possible future implementation of a global framework for climate disclosures and the potential ESG disclosure implications for public companies. Fredo and Dave touch on why the SEC has recently sought input on implementing a framework for climate change disclosures and formed a Climate and ESG Task Force, the guidance and rules already in effect, and what public companies and their boards of directors should be thinking about with respect to climate and ESG disclosure.
