Formula

V_asset_outcomes = Σ_i V_i

Apply the source-defined TNFD Recommendations method only within the disclosed location, ecosystem and value-chain boundary. A7.0 specifies a standalone monetary financial-effect metric. It is maintained as an optional Annex 2 metric and is not merged with generic risk narratives or unrelated asset-value measures.

Evidence and status sources

Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

Interpretation boundaries

Method disclosures required

Source-edition basis: Recommendations of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures, September 2023.

  • Basis for identifying asset write-offs and early retirements included in the metric.
  • Basis for attributing the write-off or early retirement to a nature-related risk.
  • Treatment of write-offs versus early retirements.
  • Currency and monetary-value basis used.

Record-specific limitations

  • Annex 2 optional additional metric; it is not an Annex 1 core global metric.
  • The metric covers asset write-offs and early retirements attributed to nature-related risks, not all asset impairments, disposals, or retirements.
  • Comparability depends on the reporting organization’s disclosed basis for attributing an asset outcome to a nature-related risk.

Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.

Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
