The Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) has released the latest version of 'Climate-related and other emerging risks disclosures: assessing financial statement materiality using AASB Practice Statement 2'.

The research paper, originally published in December 2018, contains several updates and guides directors, preparers and auditors when preparing and auditing financial statements. Even though the guidance is not mandatory, it represents the IASB’s best practice interpretation of materiality.
