Sustainability Assurance

Building trust in sustainability

A need for high-quality reporting and assurance

It’s no longer just your Board and shareholders who have an interest in your company and your business performance. Your investors also want information that’s clear, relevant and reliable – data they can trust – from your sustainability reports.

So it's more important than ever for you to be able to deliver high-quality reporting and assurance that communicates your sustainable competitive advantage effectively.

Building trust through rigorous and transparent reporting and assurance, allows you to meet investors and stakeholders needs, and provide valuable insights about how your company's addressing risks and opportunities.

Bursa Malaysia has also recognised this need. And they have made it compulsory for all their listed companies to incorporate a Sustainability Statement in their annual reports. They also highly recommend that companies get an independent assurance of their reported sustainability matters.

Are you ready for sustainability assurance?

Do your stakeholders have confidence in what is being reported in your sustainability agenda?

Do your processes over collecting, validating and documenting data ensure reliability of information for sustainability reporting?
