S1E1: Compliance to competitiveness: Why SEFR matters


Listen Later

Singapore has delayed mandatory climate reporting for small and mid-cap listed companies by up to five years. But is this really a reprieve?

In this episode of Ask PwC Singapore, we cut through the jargon to ask what this delay really means for Singaporean businesses. From Scope 3 reporting and ESG fatigue to the role of SEFR and the Resource Portal, we speak to two leaders shaping the business response to climate disclosure; so you can act with clarity and build lasting value.

This episode is produced in collaboration with PwC Singapore.
