Reference · the index

Every section of the reference, and every page in it

This is the map of the site: 13 sections and 127 pages, grouped by the regime or subject they answer.

Each section opens with its hub page, and each hub links its own explainers, deadlines and tools.

If you know the word but not the page, the glossary defines it and points to where it is covered.

About this site

Who publishes this reference, how to reach us, and the policies.

The UK SRS section is the largest, because the standards, the FCA’s listing rules and the implementation questions each need their own page; its front door is the UK SRS hub.

Energy and carbon are split across two statutory regimes, SECR and ESOS, because they have different tests, dates and penalties.

The global and European standards sit in their own sections: IFRS for the ISSB baseline, and ESRS for the EU’s.

Climate disclosure history is under TCFD, with what TCFD was and what replaced it as the place to start.

Wider ESG questions start on the ESG hub, and choosing outside help on the consultancy guide.

How it is written

How this reference is organised, and what every page shares

This is an editorial standards reference: each page takes one standard or rule, reads it at the provision, and states its status exactly.

The status words are the same on every page: in force, final, voluntary, proposed.

Every figure, date and threshold is cited inline to the instrument’s owner, and each page lists its primary sources at the foot.

Each page also carries the date it was last verified against those sources.

Who publishes the site, and how to correct it, is on the about page and the contact page.
