Regulation Meets Demand for Credible ESG Reporting

The sustainability landscape is continuously evolving, and while having sustainability data assured used to be a “nice to have,” it is soon to become the standard for environmental, social and governance (ESG) reporting. Investors, regulators and other stakeholders, including customers and employees, are paying even more attention to organizations’ ESG disclosures and performance. At ISOS Group, we apply AccountAbility’s Assurance Standard, AA1000AS v3, which was specifically developed for assuring sustainability data. This standard applies system-level and metric-specific approaches to sustainability assurance. We walk through our approach and recommendations in this blog.
