The impacts of climate change, nature loss and social inequality will not be experienced in isolation, and they cannot be solved that way either. The world's most influential companies hold the power to determine whether the global transition succeeds or stalls.
WBA's Integrated Transition Assessment will change how we assess and understand transition progress, setting a new global standard for what credible, connected, and consequential corporate action actually looks like. This framework is being built with companies, investors, policymakers and civil society - because no company can transition alone, and no stakeholder can drive accountability in isolation. The transition only works if we move together.
In April–May 2026, we will be inviting companies, governments, financial institutions and civil society to help us shape what the Integrated Transition Assessment will look like - from metrics that matter, to how the results should be delivered to drive meaningful change. This is your opportunity to ensure the framework works for you, and that it works for the transition.
Before 25 April we will update this page with a draft of our methodology on how to develop an Integrated Transition Assessment and online survey to capture your feedback. Please join our online webinars on 21 April.

Integrated Transition Assessment improves visibility of interconnected risks and opportunities. This enables better decision-making, more effective capital allocation and fewer unintended trade-offs. Ultimately, companies with credible integrated transition plans are better positioned to navigate regulatory change, meet stakeholder expectations and remain competitive in the long term.
An Integrated Transition Assessment provides a clear, comparable view of how companies are managing the most critical systemic risks - enabling more targeted, evidence-based policymaking.
For organisations working with frontline and affected communities (including Indigenous Peoples and local communities whose territories and livelihoods are most directly shaped by corporate decisions), the framework names what's missing, not just what's disclosed. This shift gives civil society independent, comparable data - across companies, sectors and geographies.
They help financial institutions assess exposure to climate, nature and social risks, anticipate stranded assets and identify credible transition leaders. In doing so, ITPs support more resilient portfolios, strengthen stewardship and engagement, and reduce the likelihood of systemic shocks across the financial system.
