SSFA issues new guidance for green and transition financing

This guide helps stakeholders in SEA apply the Singapore-Asia Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance.

The Singapore Sustainable Finance Association (SSFA) has launched its new guidance for leveraging the Singapore-Asia taxonomy in green and transition financing.

Created by SSFA's Taxonomy Workstream, this guide helps financial institutions and corporations in Southeast Asia apply the Singapore-Asia Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance (SAT) to develop credible green and transition financing.

Building on over a year of adoption, the SSFA guidance seeks to support further utilisation of the SAT by guiding data availability, treatment of interim thresholds, grandfathering provisions, meeting entity-level transition plan requirements, and the interpretation of amber categories.

The publication also presents preliminary guidance on how to reference the SAT when full alignment is not feasible.

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.
