One reporting architecture · Tailored applications
Reporting that connects evidence with management accountability.
Arocha & Associates helps organizations move beyond a checklist approach.
We connect climate-risk identification, scenario analysis and financial
implications with the governance, processes, metrics and narrative required
for credible reporting.
Companies & financial institutions
Corporate climate reporting
Reporting support centred on material risks and opportunities,
organizational prospects, strategy and connected information.
- Materiality and reporting-boundary assessment
- Governance, strategy and risk-management disclosures
- Transition plans, metrics, targets and financial effects
- Data lineage, controls and reporting readiness
Insurance-specific application
Climate reporting for insurers
The same reporting architecture, translated into insurer exposures,
actuarial processes, investments, capital and risk governance.
- Underwriting, claims and portfolio-exposure implications
- Investment, asset-liability and capital considerations
- Connections with ERM, ORSA and actuarial assumptions
- Insurance-specific metrics, narrative and controls
Applicable requirements depend on jurisdiction, organizational scope and
reporting status. The engagement begins by confirming which standards,
regulatory requirements and voluntary commitments are relevant.
Framework-aware
Navigate the standards without losing sight of the decision.
The reporting architecture is aligned to the applicable framework while
remaining grounded in materiality, traceable evidence and management use.
01
IFRS S1 & IFRS S2
General sustainability-related and climate-specific financial
disclosure requirements, including governance, strategy, risk
management, metrics and targets.
View the IFRS Sustainability Standards ↗
02
CSRD & ESRS
Applicable European sustainability-reporting requirements, including
impact and financial materiality, climate information and assurance-ready evidence.

03
TCFD legacy architecture
The familiar four-part structure remains useful and is incorporated
into the ISSB Standards, while some organizations may continue to reference it directly.

Reporting support
From readiness assessment to controlled disclosure.
Individual work modules can be commissioned separately or combined into a
reporting-readiness or implementation engagement.
01
Readiness & gap assessment
Map current disclosures, processes, evidence and responsibilities against the applicable requirements.
02
Materiality & risk identification
Identify the climate risks and opportunities that warrant analysis, management attention and disclosure.
03
Governance & oversight
Clarify board oversight, management responsibilities, review, approval and escalation arrangements.
04
Scenario analysis
Develop proportionate scenarios, assumptions and transmission pathways connected to the reporting question.
05
Metrics & targets
Select decision-useful measures, define methodologies and establish ownership, limitations and monitoring.
06
Disclosure & controls
Prepare connected narrative and quantitative information supported by traceable data and review controls.
A practical reporting process
Build the evidence before drafting the narrative.
The sequence is designed to reduce unsupported disclosure and make the final
reporting package easier to explain, review and maintain.
- 01
Confirm scope
Determine the applicable requirements, reporting entity, audience, timing and assurance expectations.
- 02
Establish materiality
Identify the risks, opportunities, exposures and value-chain dependencies that require attention.
- 03
Build the evidence
Develop scenarios, metrics, financial implications, responsibilities and supporting documentation.
- 04
Connect and control
Prepare the disclosure, reconcile narrative and data, assign review controls and define the next reporting cycle.
Typical engagement outputs
A reporting package that management can own.
Outputs depend on scope and maturity, but may include the following.
Reporting-readiness assessment and prioritized remediation roadmap
Material climate-risk and opportunity register with documented rationale
Governance map covering ownership, review, approval and escalation
Scenario-analysis methodology, assumptions, results and limitations
Metrics catalogue with definitions, sources, controls and accountable owners
Draft or reviewed disclosures supported by a traceable evidence pack
Start with reporting readiness
Where is the reporting process least defensible today?
A short discussion can clarify whether the priority is scope, materiality,
scenarios, metrics, governance, controls or the disclosure itself.
