ISSB publishes Exposure Draft proposing targeted amendments to IFRS S2 to ease application for companies

In response to market feedback, the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) has published an Exposure Draft proposing targeted amendments to IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures that would provide reliefs to ease application of requirements related to the disclosure of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

These proposed amendments, which respond to specific application challenges, are part of the ISSB’s commitment to support the implementation of ISSB Standards.
