Dec. 16, 2021 (TORONTO) - Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬 today released its inaugural Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) Report, detailing Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬's climate-related risks and opportunities.

The report, which covers Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬's financial year ended December 31, 2020, also outlines how the company is actively addressing its carbon footprint while supporting Canada's capital markets' transition to a low-carbon economy.

"This report is an important step in TMX's journey to enhance our climate-related practises and provide more meaningful disclosure to our stakeholders and investors," said John McKenzie, Chief Executive Officer of Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬. "At the centre of Canada's capital markets, TMX is committed to helping our listed issuer client base adapt and navigate through a transitioning economy, and to establishing Canada as a world-leading marketplace for sustainable investment and finance."

The report is organized in alignment with TCFD's four core pillars: Governance, Risk Management, Strategy, and Metrics and Targets.

Highlights from the report include:

  • Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬 conducted a climate materiality analysis to identify the climate-related risks and opportunities that could materially impact its strategic and operational objectives.
  • Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬 has committed to achieving carbon neutrality for 2020 and every year going forward. To reach the climate milestone in 2020, the company recently purchased voluntary carbon offsets utilizing Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬 subsidiary Trayport's Joule™ platform.
  • The company launched several initiatives to enhance ESG disclosure by its listed issuers, including a strategic alliance with IHS Markit to provide issuers with access to multi-framework ESG reporting and data distribution repositories.
  • Íâ¹úÃÀŮɫÇ鯬 introduced several products that facilitate ESG investing, including new ESG indices, sustainable ETFs, and ESG derivatives on the Montreal Exchange.
