ISSB May 2024 update

The ISSB Update for May 2024 provides summary of the recent ISSB meeting. No major decisions were made during the meeting, though the ISSB did decide to continue to use the existing SASB industry classification for its next two year work plan, and to consider enhancing the industry groupings when the SASB standards themselves are updated.

Here’s the ISSB Update.

In the latest ISSB Podcast, the Chair and Vice-Chair discuss the publication of the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Taxonomy and the interoperability guidance published by the ISSB and EFRAG (see the dedicated article in this issue) and look ahead to future publications including the final jurisdictional adoption guide and the feedback statement on its agenda consultation.
