On October 10, 2019, to mark the publication of a Japanese translation of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and Climate Disclosure Standard Board's (CDSB) “TCFD Implementation Guide”, Japan Exchange Group, Inc. held a seminar to introduce and explain the guide to our listed companies.
Speakers included SASB and CDSB, as well as EY ShinNihon, who translated the guide, and topics included recent developments in disclosure abroad, and how the guide can be helpful to Japanese companies in particular. The seminar was attended by around 270 ESG professionals and others from Japanese listed companies.
