Basel Committee Releases Voluntary Climate Disclosure Framework for Banks

On June 13, 2025, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) released its long-awaited framework for the disclosure of climate-related financial risks by banks. While voluntary, it provides banks and regulators with a structured path to improve climate risk transparency—an increasingly critical factor in regulatory and investment decisions.

For banks engaged in sustainable finance—like solar tax equity—this is a strategic opportunity to align with evolving expectations while driving real impact.
