TCFD in review – Year 4
2025 has shown that climate change is no longer a distant risk. It's a force that's already shaping economies, societies and investment markets. While government policy remains fragmented, UK pension schemes remain exposed to the risks of worsening climate outcomes, and to opportunities that arise from a faster transition to a green economy.
Our fourth annual Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) review examines how 49 UK pension schemes, representing £420bn in assets, are addressing climate change risks in their strategies.
Our findings at a glance:
- 76% of schemes have a Net Zero target, but larger schemes continue to lead the way in terms of ambition and implementation
- Implied Temperature Rise of 2.4°C on average remains above global targets, indicating assets at risk
