Session's Topic: Strategic Climate Reporting for Sustainable Success
The global landscape for climate reporting is evolving rapidly, with new regulations and standards being introduced. Companies are increasingly expected to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and transparency. Climate disclosure is not just a compliance exercise; it is a strategic imperative that can enhance a company's reputation, attract responsible investors and mitigate financial risk. By providing detailed information on carbon emissions, climate-related policies and governance practices, companies can build stakeholder trust, drive innovation and contribute to a more sustainable future.
Join us with member company Forvis Mazars to discuss the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape, with increasing requirements for climate-related disclosure from national and international authorities. While many companies have made progress, significant efforts are needed to meet the upcoming reporting deadlines. Key actions include building climate capabilities, identifying reporting gaps, and involving key employees across the organization.
Following the insightful discussion, there will be time to network with industry peers and expand your professional network.
