The Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA) and its partners launched three landmark publications to boost Singapore’s
sustainability reporting ecosystem and strengthen the credibility of both climate and social impact disclosures today.
The partnership, which is with the Singapore Exchange Regulation (SGX RegCo), the National Council of Social Service (NCSS), the Singapore Institute of Directors (SID), and PwC Singapore, seeks to help businesses, professionals, and the wider community build the capabilities needed to navigate Singapore’s evolving sustainability reporting demands.
Unveiled at the ISCA Conference, the three publications are:
- A Climate Reporting Roadmap developed by ISCA’s Sustainability and Climate Change Committee and SGX RegCo to help non-Straits Times Index (non-STI) issuers meet the extended climate reporting timelines announced by the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) and SGX RegCo in August 2025;
- Guidelines for Social Impact Metrics in Corporate Sustainability Reporting, which the NCSS put together in partnership with ISCA and SID to guide organisations in measuring and communicating their social impact;
- An ESG Assurance Landscape Study conducted by PwC, ISCA and SGX RegCo which examined whether SGX-listed companies are prepared for the looming mandatory sustainability assurance.
According to a press release, these initiatives reflect a coordinated national effort to enhance the quality and consistency of sustainability reporting, strengthening trust in disclosures that underpin Singapore’s transition to a more sustainable and inclusive economy.
