Finally, the number of endorsements of TCFD recommendations has increased by 85% over the past year.The declaration of support was signed by Bruno Le Maire (Minister of the Economy, Finance and Recovery) and Olivia Gr\u00e9goire (Secretary of State for the Social, Solidarity and Responsible Economy), Augustin de Romanet (Chairman, Paris EUROPLACE), Thierry D\u00e9au (Chairman, Finance for Tomorrow), St\u00e9phane Boujnah (CEO and Chairman of the Management Board, Euronext) and Robert Oph\u00e8le (Chairman, Autorit\u00e9 des March\u00e9s Financiers). The announcement coincides with the fifth anniversary of the signing of the Paris Agreement, and was discussed at the One Planet Finance follow-up meeting organized by French President Emmanuel Macron. Support for the TCFD recommendations represented one of the twelve commitments made at the first One Planet Summit in 2017.<!u002du002d \/wp:paragraph u002du002d> <!u002du002d wp:paragraph u002du002d><strong>On November 20, 2020, at the One Planet Sovereign Wealth Funds Summit, which brought together 33 CEOs of the world&#8217;s largest institutional investors with over $30 trillion in assets under management, CEOs of sovereign wealth funds and asset managers made statements of support to recognize the TCFD recommendations as a global reporting standard.<\/strong> This action came as leaders identified the lack of universal reporting standards as a systemic barrier. They recognized that a global commitment to the TCFD by the financial system would ensure efficiency and improve the allocation of capital to those companies that best manage climate-related risks and lead the transition.<!u002du002d \/wp:paragraph u002du002d> <!u002du002d wp:paragraph u002du002d><strong>Augustin de Romanet<\/strong>, <strong>Chairman of Paris EUROPLACE<\/strong>, said: &#8216; <em>Paris EUROPLACE&#8217;s support for the TCFD principles reflects the Paris financial center&#8217;s commitment to environmental finance.
