Sustainability Reporting in MY: What Businesses Need to Know

Whether through mandatory requirements or market pressures, there is growing pressure for businesses of all sizes to adapt to the varying levels of sustainability reporting. While often perceived as a tedious compliance checklist, some believe that sustainability reporting can also unlock growth, attract investors, and future-proof your business.  

On P&L, KPMG’s Phang Oy Cheng breaks down the state of sustainability reporting in Malaysia. We discuss the evolving role of ESG in financial reporting, the National Sustainability Reporting Framework (NSRF), and its implications for large corporations, SMEs, and supply chains. 

Tune in for insights on compliance, risk management, and practical steps businesses can take to stay ahead of the sustainability curve.
