Webinar by Prof Charl de Villiers - What’s New in Sustainability Reporting Standards: The Impact of IASB, SEC and EFRAG

 Registration is closed for this event

Social and environmental disclosure standards and guidelines have proliferated, each with a unique focus and characteristics. The entrance of the IASB into this arena has led to renewed interest and activity, including some consolidation among standard setters. At the same time, the involvement of the SEC in the US and EFRAG in Europe promise to have far-reaching impacts. How is this likely to influence reporters? How do sustainability standards fit with IFRS reporting? How can all the different standards and standard setters in the sustainability space be accommodated? How does sustainability reporting link with management accounting? Is all of this more confusing than helpful for management accountants?

The presentation will provide an overview of these developments in a non-technical way, including how the landscape is likely to develop and how it might influence ESG practice.
