TNFD sectoral guidelines for eight sectors of the economy

The TNFD has published final additional sectoral guidance for eight sectors of the real economy to implement the LEAP approach, along with updated additional guidance for financial institutions to implement the TNFD Recommendations and final guidance on value chains.

This is the result of an iterative development process that has lasted 18 months and has included extensive consultations with TNFD's knowledge partners and market participants.

Additional guidance includes:

• Aquaculture.
• Biotechnology and pharmacy.
• Chemicals.
• Electric services and power generators.
• Food and agriculture.
• Forestry, pulp and paper.
• Metallurgy and mining.
• Oil and gas.
• Additional guidance for financial institutions.
• Guidance on value chains.

Alongside these guidelines, guidelines have also been published for five other sectors, which are open for consultation and comments from 4 July to 27 September.
The development of the TNFD sectoral guidance has been led by working groups of TNFD Task Force members with extensive input from both scientific partners and market participants over the past year, including through focus groups and written comments. The working group welcomes the contributions received from a wide range of individuals and organizations.
