🌍 The latest climate reporting study by ACRA and the Sustainable and Green Finance Institute (SGFIN) at the National University of Singapore found that larger listed companies — 78% of which are from the carbon-intensive sectors — are making good progress in climate reporting.     From best practices to actionable tips, the study offers valuable insights for companies looking to strengthen their climate reporting. Learn more about the study's findings and recommendations so your organisation can better prepare for the upcoming International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)-aligned reporting requirements.     Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gYu3ya6Y    #ClimateReporting #SustainabilityReporting #Sustainability #ISSBstandards #TCFD

Attention all board directors! What is the TNFD and how does it Fit into Climate Reporting? Tune in to learn more.

Ahoy! #EventAlert in Singapore 🇸🇬 for those keen to learn about how to become a #BoardDirector. In 2021, I was given the opportunity to establish the #NewDirectorsNetwork at the Singapore Institute of Directors. 🎩 tips to Howie, Su-Yen, Junie for reposing their faith in me. We had found an under addressed space in how an #Executive should chart their #NonExecutive journey, since deciding on which organisation to serve as a #BoardMember is a non-linear process that’s in contrast to the linearities of applying for a #CorporateFullTime role. Dial forward three years, and those early, tentative baby steps have become firm strides of a young adult; by hosting events where new and aspiring directorial candidates learn from those ahead of the curve. For our next event, we are delighted to be hosted by Kuan-Thye SEAN, Tan Tzann Chang . and their amazing team at The NUSS - National University of Singapore Society 🤝🫵🏼👌🏽🥂🎩 I will be hosting a panel discussion with Serene, Frank and Chee Weng Lam to share our journey and how much of it is or remains #AlwaysInBeta! 📆 July 16th, 2024 (Tuesday) 🕰️ 630pm, Registration & Canapés 📍Suntec City Guildhouse Function Room Registration Link: https://lnkd.in/gUEYhjbA Please ping Christopher Lee (email in the eDM) for all else. This event is open to non-NUSS and non-SID members and not just #Corporate or #Listed firms as well as #Startups, #Charities or #SMEs #BeThereOrBeSquare. #WelcomeAll
