On 20 June 2016, the Singapore Exchange (SGX) announced the Sustainability Reporting Guidelines requiring publicly-listed companies to issue a Sustainability Report on their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performance.
Globally, several stock exchanges are taking similar measures, in response to investors’ concerns about the limitations of financial information in the decision-making process.
A more comprehensive approach is needed to create resilience in the global stock markets. Performance improvement on the ESG level will allow companies and economies to grow, without taking unnecessary risks regarding climate change, social inclusion, and market predictability.
Investors are of different natures, but particularly, the largest institutional investment entities are very active in asking their investee companies for ESG accountability, transparency and stewardship. As a result, the new requirements will not only impact listed companies in their local listing compliance but will also send a strong message to the global investors' community about the quality of their securities.
However, sustainability reporting should not bring unnecessary administrative burden to businesses. Instead, companies should leverage the value of ESG performance as a business opportunity. They should also understand that implementing global sustainability standards in a sensible way is critical to achieving the results without increasing operational costs.
We have designed a bundle of services related to sustainability reporting and strategy, furnished to comply with global requirements while keeping the things simple to our clients. With minimum investment, we help our clients to focus on what matters and implement the Integrated and Sustainability Reporting requirements in a flexible and practical way.
