Preparing for the UK SRS - A Strategic Roadmap to Integrate Sustainability & Value

Introduction

Are you ready for the next major shift in corporate reporting? The UK Sustainability Reporting Standards (‘UK SRS’) are on the horizon, set to become mandatory for large UK companies. These standards, aligned with the globally consistent ISSB IFRS S1 (General Requirements) and S2 (Climate-related Disclosures), will redefine transparency and accountability in corporate reporting. Companies that act early will gain a competitive edge, while those unprepared may face heightened scrutiny and risks.

These standards mandate reporting on financially material sustainability risks and opportunities, formally integrating ESG factors into mainstream financial reporting - a stronger step compared to existing Director duties. Early market reactions underscore the shift in responsibility: data governance, internal controls, and assurance readiness for sustainability information are now critical finance and legal functions.

This webinar offers a practical, factual roadmap for C-Suite leaders and their reporting teams to strategically prepare for the UK SRS adoption, assess and mitigate disclosure risks and efforts, and leverage enhanced transparency to maintain market credibility and attract capital.

The webinar is suitable for C-level executives, specifically Chief Financial Officers (‘CFOs’), Heads of Risk, Directors of Investor Relations, General Counsel/Legal Teams, Governance/Compliance Officers and legal teams advising directors, and any role involved in annual reporting, risk management, and integrated strategy.
