Executive Summary
This report provides an overview of key ESG disclosure regulations in major global economies that are effective from 2024 onwards – and, more importantly, outlines steps firms can take to prepare for these regulations. The adoption of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) is a milestone in sustainability reporting; other countries are following suit, to maintain pace with regulation and ensure alignment across standards, particularly those of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). Critically, firms are not alone in their endeavours to satisfy compliance requirements. The offerings provided by software and services providers support the full life cycle of reporting requirements, from strategy, data collection and target-setting, through to governance, report publication and assurance.
