Sustainability Counts II: State of sustainability reporting in Asia Pacific

Sustainability Counts II: State of sustainability reporting in Asia Pacific

It’s a critical moment for sustainability reporting. As investors, regulators and other stakeholders call for increased transparency around ESG performance, the big three standard setters – the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) – each have a different focus that will impact corporations in Asia Pacific.

Join us for a webinar, in collaboration with the National University of Singapore Centre for Governance and Sustainability (NUS CGS), to discuss our recent report, Sustainability Counts II, which summarises global sustainability reporting and assurance developments, the state of sustainability reporting in Asia Pacific, and practical insights on addressing ESG reporting challenges. 

We will briefly cover the new ISSB standards (IFRS S1 and S2) and CSRD requirements, and speakers and panellists from PwC’s sustainability practice, and esteemed speakers and industry experts, will discuss the state of sustainability in Asia Pacific.
