Sustainability performance is now a business-critical issue with real financial, reputational, and regulatory implications. Companies are under pressure to set and deliver on credible sustainability ambitions, demonstrate measurable progress and provide robust disclosures.
Anand Raniga and Brett Spicer will explore how effective, fit-for-purpose sustainability-related systems and controls can strengthen governance, improve decision-making, reduce the risk of greenwashing or regulatory non-compliance, and avoid capital market disengagement. They will also discuss key steps to build confidence in frameworks that support accurate tracking and reporting of performance against sustainability commitments, identify gaps that could expose you to risk, and ensure alignment with sustainability standards, including the Australian Accounting Standards Board Climate-related Financial Disclosures (AASB S2).
