Climate-related disclosures
Climate-related risks and broader sustainability issues are becoming a core focus for boards and businesses whether through stakeholder pressure or internal factors. Investors and stakeholders are basing crucial decisions on climate-related risk disclosure. Organisations are facing ever-louder calls to take these risks seriously, integrating them into the risk management and reporting processes.
Accountants are particularly well-placed to advise and support organisations in understanding the interconnected climate-related risks and opportunities, and how to measure, report and respond to these.
Globally and in Australia and New Zealand, regulation of climate risk disclosure is developing quickly. The pace of change means it's important accountants are proactively looking at how they can support businesses as they adapt.
