Capital Markets & Securities Law Watch

California’s Climate Accountability Package (the CAP) requires large public and private companies doing business in California to disclose their greenhouse gas emissions and mandates that certain companies publicly report on their climate-related financial risks and the measures they are taking to address those risks. Recent amendments have left implementation timelines largely unchanged. While legal challenges to the CAP continue and final guidance has not yet been published, companies should prepare to comply as the regulatory environment evolves.
