CSDS S1
The core content requirements of CSDS 1 are structured around four fundamental pillars that align with international best practices. Core Content: Encompasses governance, strategy, risk management, and metrics, ensuring that disclosures are complete and faithfully represent the situation.
Governance disclosures under CSDS 1 require companies to detail their board oversight and management processes for sustainability-related risks and opportunities. This includes describing the specific roles and responsibilities of governance bodies, the frequency of sustainability discussions, and the integration of sustainability considerations into strategic decision-making processes. Companies must also disclose their risk management processes and how sustainability factors are incorporated into overall enterprise risk management.
CSDS S2
CSDS 2 focuses specifically on climate-related disclosures, providing detailed guidance for Canadian companies on reporting climate risks, opportunities, and their financial implications. CSDS 2 focuses on climate-specific financial disclosures, mirroring the structure of CSDS 1 but tailored to address climate risks and opportunities. This standard represents a critical component of Canada's approach to climate transparency and corporate accountability.
The structure of CSDS 2 follows the internationally recognized Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework, organized around four key pillars. CSDS 2 provides specific guidance for climate-related disclosures, aligning closely with the TCFD recommendations.
