CFO and Sustainability Clubs Roundtable: Building Financial Resilience in a Changing Climate

Explore strategies for building financial resilience and navigating the complexities of climate-related financial reporting!

The intensifying impacts of climate change pose significant financial risks for businesses. This CFO and Sustainability Clubs session will explore strategies for building financial resilience and navigating the complexities of climate-related financial reporting.

With Singapore's impending mandatory climate-related reporting requirements for listed and large non-listed companies, CFOs must understand the new disclosure obligations under the IFRS’ International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards, starting as early as 2025.

This event will explore how parametric insurance can serve as a powerful complement to existing risk mitigation tools, offering customizable coverage and facilitating faster recovery times in the aftermath of climate-driven disasters.

Participants will gain valuable insights into navigating this complex landscape and exchanging best practices with peers.
