  • The General requirements ED (IFRS S1) provides a core framework for the disclosure of material information about all significant sustainability-related risks and opportunities across an entity’s value chain.
  • The Climate ED (IFRS S2) sets out requirements for entities to disclose information about significant climate-related risks and opportunities that will enable users of general purpose financial reporting to assess the impact of those risks and opportunities on the entity’s (a) financial position, performance and cash flows; (b) enterprise value; and (c) strategy and business model.
