Singapore needs common framework for climate-change disclosures: panel

Singapore

WITH the growing urgency and import of climate-change action, it's time for Singapore to adopt a common reporting framework for climate-related financial disclosures, to improve the consistency and comparability of the information put out by companies here.

The call was made by Monetary Authority of Singapore's (MAS) executive director in its corporate finance and consumer department, Abigail Ng, during a sustainability reporting panel discussion on Wednesday.
