SGX RegCo sets new standards in sustainability reporting starting FY2025

Issuers must incorporate the latest international standards into their sustainability report.

Starting FY2025, the Singapore Exchange Regulation (SGX RegCo) will start incorporating the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards into its sustainability reporting rules.

SGX RegCo will require all issuers to start reporting Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

The regulatory watchdog is also looking to require larger issuers to report Scope 3 GHG emissions starting FY2026.

Meanwhile, the other primary components of a sustainability report apart from climate-related disclosures will be mandated from FY2026 to give issuers enough time to focus on climate-related disclosures in FY2025.

“The disclosure of Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions is an important step to enable larger issuers to report their Scope 3 GHG emissions. SGX RegCo on our part will continue to facilitate capacity building to assist issuers on their climate reporting journeys,” said Mr Tan Boon Gin, CEO of SGX RegCo.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
