Conducting a Scenario Analysis to Assess Climate Resilience as Required by AASB S2

Overview
Navigate AASB S2 with confidence – master climate resilience disclosures and turn risk into strategic insight
The Corporations Act 2001 and AASB S2 Climate-related Disclosures require many Australian entities to disclose information that enables users of general purpose financial reports to understand the resilience of the entity’s strategy and business model to climate-related changes, developments and uncertainties, taking into consideration the entity’s identified climate-related risks and opportunities
In this session, we explore:
- The requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 which requires two specific scenarios to be explored
- How to conduct a scenario analysis to assess the entity’s climate resilience as required by AASB S2 paragraph 22
- How to develop qualitative narratives
- How to quantify the climate scenarios
- The role of the scenarios developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPPC)
- The role of the scenarios developed by the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS)
- The role of the International Energy Agency (IEA)
- Required disclosures.
