“Efforts to establish a global consensus for climate and sustainability disclosures took a major step as the International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation (IFRS) announced a series of ‘significant developments’ including its new International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).”

[COMMENTARY]This development is great news and timely. I and many others associated with ethical and sustainable investing have decades called for this development.

UPDATE: Canadians are happy too, that one of the three main offices of the new Board will be in Montreal.
