Leading Financial Market Participants Call for Stronger Alignment of Regulatory and Standard Setting Efforts around Sustainability Disclosure

WBCSD, IFAC and the PRI call for alignment between disclosure requirements on sustainability-related information currently under development at the international level, in the United States and the European Union. As these proposed sustainability-related disclosure requirements are refined and finalized, the organisations call for each initiative to pointedly avoid regulatory and standard-setting fragmentation by aligning key concepts, terminologies, and metrics on which disclosure requirements are built.
