STAKEHOLDER TOOLKIT
Summary
The Stakeholder Toolkit lists various guidance documents, data tools, and networks aimed at integrating deforestation risk into financial decision-making. It highlights frameworks like the TCFD and TNFD, data tools such as TRASE and Forest IQ, and investor initiatives like Climate Action 100+ and the Finance Sector Deforestation Action (FSDA) initiative to support the transition toward deforestation-free financial portfolios.
Key insights
- The toolkit identifies several frameworks and guidance documents for financial disclosure and risk management, including the TCFD's guidance on metrics, targets, and transition plans, and the TNFD, which is a "market-led, science-based framework" for integrating nature loss into business decision-making.
- Various tools and assessments are available to help investors measure deforestation risk and understand commodity trade, such as TRASE's online tools for the "trade and financing of commodities" and the 'Deforestation tools assessment and gap analysis' which helps investors "systematically measure deforestation risks".
- The document lists several collaborative initiatives and networks focused on eliminating deforestation from supply chains, including the Investor Initiative for Sustainable Forests (IISF), which targets cattle and soy supply chains, and Climate Action 100+, which focuses on "robust scope 3 GHG reduction targets" to end deforestation.
- The Finance Sector Deforestation Action (FSDA) initiative is specifically aimed at accelerating action on "commodity-driven deforestation and net-zero", with a particular target date of 2025.
