Focused on developing standards that can provide a common language for sustainability information, to enable comparable and consistent sustainability disclosures across global capital markets, the IFRS is working on global sustainability standards and set up the ISSB for such purpose. The ISSB is working with jurisdictions around the world, as well as market participants, to deliver this.
IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards will provide the foundations for globally applicable disclosure requirements, thereby establishing a consistent and comprehensive global baseline. The ISSB’s global baseline will be developed to provide the information that is material to investors globally.
