IFRS S1 General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information and IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures, issued by the ISSB in June 2023, are the first IFRS sustainability disclosure standards. IFRS S1 sets out the general requirements for a complete set of sustainability-related financial disclosures. IFRS S1 is designed to be applied in conjunction with IFRS S2, which is a topic-based standard that specifies disclosures relating to climate.
This updated edition uses real-life examples to illustrate practices that could be a starting point for disclosing information required by ISSB standards.
