China’s new climate standard: a global signal at the right time
China has provided a clear regulatory signal. The opportunity now lies in translating that ambition into reporting that genuinely informs sustainable outcomes and drives climate action, in China and across global markets.
Judgments about climate transition pathways, biodiversity impacts and long-term risks do not always fit neatly into existing controls. Asia faces the additional challenge of non-accountants performing sustainability fuctions. Ethical standards are here to help.
As many of Asia's investors and family offices are rooted in legacy, family values, and community stewardship, they are well-positioned to serve as anchor investors in climate and nature solutions.
