The discussion will include:

  • Legal implications and preparation strategies
  • What SB 253 requires, including a timeline and compliance steps for all experience levels
  • Under SB 261, how to assess physical climate risks to fixed assets, including from acute impacts (e.g., floods) and chronic impacts (e.g., sea level rise)
  • Under SB 261, how transition risks (e.g., market shifts) could impact corporate strategy, financial stability, and regulatory compliance

Don’t miss this opportunity to get ahead of these upcoming reporting and disclosure obligations. This program has been approved for 1.5 hours of MCLE credit by the State Bar of California. Farella Braun + Martel LLP is a certified provider.
