Overview
Ashley Alder will outline IOSCO’s vision for a set of globally consistent sustainability reporting standards, and share with the audience how this work is being progressed through the joint efforts of IOSCO and the IFRS Foundation. Ashley will also speak about how Hong Kong’s Cross Agency Steering Group on Green and Sustainable Finance is preparing for the application of the ISSB climate reporting standards in Hong Kong.

Teresa Ko will provide insights into the next steps at the IFRS Foundation for the creation of the ISSB.

The panel will then discuss the following points:
