🌏 #ICYMI AmCham Singapore hosted a Sustainability & Environment and Legal & IPR Cross-Committee engagement on “Disclosure Decoded: Laying the Groundwork for Climate Compliance.” The session focused on the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting landscape, particularly climate-related disclosures. 🎤 The panel featured experts Elsa Chen, Partner (Chief Economist) at Allen & Gledhill LLP; Jay Kwek, ESG Solutions Consultant at UL Solutions; and moderator Richard Allen, Local Principal – Dispute Resolution Group at Baker McKenzie. Key takeaways from the session included: ⚡ New EU ESG Mandates: The EU’s forthcoming mandatory ESG reporting requirements, effective from 2025, will impact both listed and private companies with significant turnover. This shift expands compliance expectations beyond publicly listed companies, requiring even large private companies to adhere to ESG standards. ⚡ Data Challenges and Opportunities: Managing ESG data is complex due to diverse sources and varying organizational systems, often exacerbated by supply chain data issues. Digitalization presents solutions through automated data collection and integration, enhancing alignment with multiple ESG standards. Interoperability between standards is essential for reducing reporting burdens and ensuring compliance across jurisdictions. ⚡Comparing ESG Standards: The need to harmonize Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards with International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards was emphasized. Despite progress, such as Singapore’s alignment with ISSB, companies face challenges due to regional discrepancies. Achieving a unified global framework will require continued regulatory collaboration. ⚡The Role of Technology: Technology is transforming ESG data management through automation, improved validation, and compliance with standards like GRI and ISSB. Innovations, such as integrated software platforms and digital verification tools, are reducing greenwashing risks and opening new business opportunities. Embracing these technologies is crucial for advancing ESG reporting and unlocking market potential. A special thanks to Committee Sponsor Dell Technologies and our engaged attendees! Stay informed and proactive as the ESG landscape evolves.

🌏 #ICYMI [2024 AMCHAM SINGAPORE REGIONAL ECONOMIC CONFERENCE – PART 2/6] 🌏 ⚓ In 1985, the late former Prime Minister of Singapore Mr. Lee Kuan Yew addressed the U.S. Congress and urged the U.S. to maintain its position as the “anchor economy of the free market economies of the world”. 🤝 Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat reflected on the history of bilateral relations and the trade relationship between the U.S. and Singapore at the 2024 AmCham Singapore Regional Economic Conference. Noting Singapore’s diplomacy strategies as a small state, DPM Heng emphasized the need for a global rule-based order and a system of free trade that is fair. This comes as we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the U.S.-Singapore Free Trade Agreement (USSFTA). 🎓 On the future of jobs and education, he noted the importance of utilizing artificial intelligence and automation to add value to existing roles, adding that human needs and wants such as emotional intelligence are not computable. DPM Heng called on the audience to think about our contributions to the world in the next fifty years. He discussed the need to address challenges facing humanity including climate change and pandemic preparedness, as well as advancements to improve human life through biotechnology. Our thanks to Mr. Tibor Pándi, Singapore Citi Country Officer and Banking Head, for his expert moderation of the fireside chat with DPM Heng. 🎇 Our thanks to all sponsors for making this conference possible.
