Navigating the evolving landscape of sustainability assurance

Get insights on the global landscape of sustainability assurance regulations and their impact on Singapore companies.

Companies that fail to meet investor expectations on environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors risk losing access to capital markets. According to the EY Global Corporate Reporting and Institutional Investor Survey, 76% of investors feel that companies are highly selective about the information they share, leading to concerns about greenwashing. Additionally, 88% of investors believe that without regulatory mandates, companies tend to provide only limited, decision-useful sustainability disclosures.

Globally, regulators are pushing for reliable sustainability reporting and are increasingly moving towards mandating assurance on these disclosures. This shift highlights the critical need for accurate and transparent sustainability reporting.

Join us for an insightful event on navigating the evolving landscape of sustainability assurance, designed for businesses based in Singapore and also those operating globally.

This session will cover:

• Insights on the global landscape of sustainability assurance regulations and the impact on the companies based in Singapore and those operating internationally
• Understanding the upcoming sustainability assurance standard ISSA 5000 and preparing your organization for assurance
• Learning the importance of safeguarding your organization against greenwashing and ensuring your sustainability claims are genuine and verifiable
