As an essential element of forward-looking reporting, company transition plans can play an important role in achieving net zero goals. Existing net zero pledges and plans by companies stongly differ in composition and depth and often lack forward-looking pathways to achieve the goal, which makes it hard for stakeholders from the financial sector to systematically assess and consider them in their decision-making. Together with experts from science, politics and business, we will discuss how companies can develop credible transitions plans and what kind of regulatory framework is needed to make them an effective instrument for forward-looking strategy development and reporting on the way to net zero.
