Deloitte Academy, ISSB and Chapter Zero Event
The Deloitte Academy auditorium and foyer space – 1st floor, 1 New Street Square, London, EC4A 3HQ
About this Event
It is becoming imperative for Businesses to factor into their strategic thinking not only the transition to a lower-carbon economy but adaptation in the face of increasing climate-related physical risks. This panel will examine whether climate-related risks and opportunities are being sufficiently priced into investment decision-making. We will also explore how Non-Executive Directors can guide the integration of sustainability insights into core business strategies to enable more resilient businesses.
With growing global momentum towards the adoption of the ISSB Standards, including in the UK, this event will discuss how sustainability data can enhance board-level strategic decision-making, leading to high-quality information available to investors for asset pricing and assessing long-term returns. Participants will also receive updates on the ISSB’s work to develop guidance on transition plan disclosures.
