Climate-related Disclosures – International Sustainability Standards Board

Date recorded:

At its meeting on January 17-19, 2023, the ISSB met to redeliberate some of the proposals in its Exposure Draft IFRS S2. The ISSB discussed and made tentative conclusions with respect to: (i) the proposed objective for disclosing metrics and targets; (ii) the concept of ‘reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date without undue cost or effort’ and whether and how to introduce this concept in IFRS S1; (iii) the proposed requirements for an entity to disclose current and anticipated financial effects of sustainability-related risks and opportunities; (iv) the proposed requirements on connected information; (v) the proposed requirement for an entity to use scenario analysis to assess its climate resilience; (vi) the proposed requirement for an entity to disclose its greenhouse gas emissions and a potential reporting relief; and (vii) the proposed requirement for an entity to disclose its climate-related targets. The ISSB will continue to redeliberate the proposals in draft IFRS S1 with the aim of making final decisions about the content, including the effective date.
