SINGAPORE - Companies listed in Singapore have improved their sustainability reporting, despite the challenges from the Covid-19 pandemic, according to a joint review by Singapore Exchange Regulation (SGX RegCo) and the Centre for Governance and Sustainability (CGS) at the National University of Singapore Business School. The review comes amid heightened concerns about the impact of climate change and a boom in sustainability-linked financing. It also notes that there is ample room for improvement in quality and depth of disclosures on quantifiable sustainability targets. The review found that the average overall score based on the SGX-CGS Sustainability Reporting Scorecard 2021 rose to 71.7 points from 60.6 in 2019. The gain was broad-based and regardless of listing board, size and industry sector.
