Task Force climate-related financial disclosures (TCFD) index
DB Group supports the recommendations of the TCFD on reporting climaterelated information. In this Integrated Report, we publish content recommended by the TCFD at various points.
The index table shows in which chapters and sub-chapters relevant topics can be found. The table is broken down according to the TCFD recommendations into the four core areas of governance, strategy, risk management, as well as key figures and targets.
