The statement regarding the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) being a compulsory framework for disclosing climate-related financial risks is incorrect. TCFD provides voluntary recommendations for corporations on climate-related financial disclosures to help investors assess the financial implications of climate change. While the guidelines promote transparency and consistency in reporting, compliance with TCFD's recommendations is not mandatory for companies, although some jurisdictions may encourage or have begun to adopt regulations making it compulsory.

In contrast, the other statements focus on the critical relationship between information disclosure and market stability. For instance, a lack of information about risks can lead to asset mispricing and a misallocation of capital, simultaneously threatening investment decisions and market efficiency. Additionally, inadequate information can indeed lead to vulnerabilities in the financial system, potentially resulting in abrupt market corrections that affect financial stability. Furthermore, in most G20 jurisdictions, there exist legal obligations for companies to disclose material risks in financial reports, emphasizing the importance of transparency and accountability in corporate governance.
