More clarity regarding the defini-,tion of material climate-related risks for companies and the transparency of their long-term resilience strategies,is needed. The EU should implement a more regulative disclosure framework, i.e. the NFI Directive should include,stress tests to ensure future-orientation and comparability. Through such reforms and further improvements the,EU should take a global lead in transforming the financial system.
