During the meeting of the Trustees of the IFRS Foundation currently taking place in Montreal, Canada, the Trustees have signed a memorandum of understanding to obtain the financial support of the Government of Canada and the Government of Quebec for the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).
This support will help the IFRS Foundation to fully establish the ISSB within the Canadian sustainability ecosystem. In exchange, the IFRS Foundation has committed to scheduling initial ISSB meetings to be held in Montreal in October and December 2022 and hosting the inaugural ISSB Symposium in Montreal, with the dates to be confirmed.
