Research

Bringing academic rigour and insights to the climate challenges facing regulators and business

About us

Our research mission is to help create techniques for analysing climate risk and to help shape the global regulatory environment on climate-related disclosures. Our findings are delivered through high-level reports that aim to inform local and global debates on the future of climate finance and carbon accounting. The first phase of our work will focus on three areas: 1. Corporate climate strategy: The widespread implementation of recommendations from the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) is a strong step forward in encouraging industry leaders to get serious about climate risk, but it can be difficult for businesses to know where to begin. We’re here to provide clarity and to conduct the research needed to advance best practice. 2. ESG Auditing: There is considerable scepticism over the accuracy, reliability and materiality of ESG reporting. This is not surprising considering the nascent state of ESG and lack of standardization. Yet the next few years are going to see a burgeoning demand for ESG audits that approach the level of assurance expected of financial information. Research into the challenges and avenues forward is critical at this juncture, and should prove invaluable across the four CSE pillars as their service lines develop. 3. The water-carbon nexus: Climate change means a shifting water system. This will have far-reaching effects, including sea-level rise and altered precipitation levels. At the same time, TCFD analysis is starting to show companies the water-related impacts that climate change will have on their business model. But we are in the early stages and understanding of these risks is limited. So the core aim of this research theme is to develop frameworks that help businesses analyse and act on the water-related risks of climate change.

    ⏱️ 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘂𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗺𝗻𝗶𝗯𝘂𝘀? The EU Parliament recently confirmed that they would support delaying reporting and due diligence requirements under the CSRD and CSDDD. The outcome of the vote is a delay in both CSRD and CSDDD by 2 years and 1 year respectively. This means that companies who meet the definition of a large undertaking would be required to report against CSRD in 2028 on 2027 data. The draft law still requires approval by the European Council before it is considered final, meaning that the final shape of the Omnibus package remains uncertain for now. If you want to learn about the proposed changes in the omnibus, read our ‘𝗢𝗺𝗻𝗶𝗯𝘂𝘀 𝗨𝗻𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱’ guide, with a breakdown of the proposed amendments and how they may impact your business. 🔗 Download your free copy here https://lnkd.in/eu76_9VM #Business #ESG #Sustainability #Law

    Yesterday I was delighted and honoured to sign RSK’s first ever contract in Sarawak, Malaysian state of Borneo, with CENTEXS, Centre for Technology Excellence, a Government-funded vocational training provider and technology developer, with 8 campuses across Sarawak. I was joined by the CEO of CENTEXS, Dato Syeed, and Dr Nadianatra Musa, Chief Academic Officer, as well as Jessica Finch (方星瑤), RSK’s Operations Director for APAC, and Dr Robert Charnock Head of RSK’s Metis Institute for Climate Strategy. RSK will be developing and delivering training in Sustainable Tourism Management to post-degree students, and we are in discussions with CENTEXS about other courses and how we can embed sustainability across their curriculum. A huge thank you to Jess and Robert, as well as Wayne Mumford, RSK’s Sports and Leisure Sector Director, for their hard work and perseverance over the last 12 months developing this exciting opportunity!
