Plain-English Summary

The bill would require banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions to assess and disclose how climate change could affect their business and investments, similar to how they already report other financial risks. This would help investors and regulators understand which financial companies are exposed to climate-related dangers like extreme weather, changing energy markets, or stranded assets. The requirement would apply to large financial firms and could influence how they invest money and manage risk.
