Summary
Sustainability reporting is evolving, with increasing focus on consistent disclosures, reliable sustainability information and assurance. As reporting requirements and expectations develop, organisations and professionals need to understand what is changing and what this means for the future of corporate reporting.
This session will provide an update on key global sustainability reporting developments and the role of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) Standards.

The session will bring these global developments into the Malaysian context, giving you a clearer understanding of what they could mean for organisations and accounting and finance professionals in Malaysia. You will also gain insights into the capabilities, processes and considerations you should start preparing for as sustainability reporting and assurance expectations continue to evolve.
