A commissioner with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) recommended three action items to help the agency and regulated entities “measure, understand, and address climate-related financial risk.”
In a speech delivered Friday during a sustainable finance conference at Yale University, CFTC Commissioner Christy Goldsmith Romero said the agency has a responsibility to understand the climate risks posed to the commodities market. Doing so helps the market remain resilient, she said.
