The current focus on ESG and climate disclosure standards has prompted investors and corporations worldwide to prepare for a series of new rules. Regulators worldwide, such as the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), are finalising regulations that mandate the inclusion of emissions data in corporate financial reports. Additionally, the European Union's Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) is set to have a substantial impact on financial markets in 2023.
