Sustainability reporting is a growing trend in Hong Kong, particularly since The Hong Kong Stock Exchange (“HKEx”) appended and further strengthened the Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) Reporting Guide to the Listing Rules. As companies increasingly consider their observance of the HKEx “comply or explain” provisions and other sustainability guidelines, it is important to understand the fundamentals of disclosure and ESG reporting.
This workshop provides companies with an introduction to the ESG reporting process. Participants will come away with an understanding of the key steps involved in report preparation and assurance, as well as an overview of the HKEx requirements.

- Learn the key steps in sustainability/ESG reporting
