Webinar
There have been many exciting sustainability reporting developments in the last year, including GRI’s G4 guidelines, IIRC’s latest <IR> draft framework, and continued development of SASB standards. BSR members often ask us what this means for sustainability reporting, and how companies should think about each of the frameworks.
In our latest webinar, BSR will explore what the evolvingnew frameworks mean for companies, and how a sustainability reporting strategy can help strengthen relationships with stakeholders and improve sustainability performance. We’ll be joined by representatives from SABIC and BNY Mellon, who will discuss their approaches to reporting and the new frameworks.
BSR welcomes and has responded to the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)’s two exposure drafts released in March 2022, grounding our comments in 30 years of experience working with member companies.
Under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), all large, all listed, and some non-EU companies will be required to report sustainability information against mandatory European Sustainability Reporting Standards. Six things that business should know about the CSRD.
The International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation (IFRS) intends to consolidate the Value Reporting Foundation (VRF) and the Climate Disclosure Standards Board (CDSB). As ESG gains momentum and urgency, it is time to embed sustainability considerations in the basic functioning of the capital markets, which will only happen with universal disclosures that enable consistency.
We are entering the next era of just and sustainable business with a much clearer pathway. BSR Vice President Dunstan Allison-Hope shares a framework around which the field seems to be coalescing.
BSR's submitted feedback to the EU Social Taxonomy Process, an effort initiated under a mandate from the European Commission Platform on Sustainable Finance to ensure that vital social aspects of sustainability are integrated into the EU’s Taxonomy Regulation.
The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Foundation is exploring whether and how to set up an International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). We discuss three opportunities and risks that businesses should know about the potential new sustainability standards.
In response to the SEC's interest in taking steps to require climate disclosure, we discuss crucial steps that the SEC should enable to provide consistent, comparable, and reliable information that will strengthen investors’ ability to make decisions, provide incentives for business to generate long-term value, and lead to a market economy that delivers on society’s greatest needs.
The field of sustainability reporting is entering a significant phase of transformation that has the potential to set direction for disclosure over the next decade and more. BSR has developed a perspective to guide engagement in dialogue about the future of reporting.
