More than 200 New Zealand entities - both public and private - are mandated to disclose greenhouse gas inventories, net zero strategies, and their exposure to climate risk and adaptation plans. These requirements are mandated by the Carbon Neutral Government Programme and the recent introduction of the External Reporting Boards Climate-related Disclosures standard.
Many organisations chose to voluntarily disclose their ESG strategy and performance, citing benefits with multiple stakeholder groups. It is paramount that voluntary reporting is carried out with the same scrutiny as mandatory reporting.
We can provide advice on the most appropriate reporting framework to meet your objectives, and guidance on how best to adopt your chosen framework, to ensure that the reporting process reflects your strategy and commitments.
