ASEAN stock exchanges collaborates to develop sustainability framework

Creating an ESG ecosystem is amongst the initiatives to drive sustainability in ASEAN.

Singapore Exchange (SGX), Bursa Malaysia, Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), and The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), announced a collaboration on the ASEAN-Interconnected Sustainability Ecosystem (ASEAN-ISE).

The collaboration will advance ASEAN’s sustainable development by implementing common ESG metrics in their data infrastructures.

Bursa Malaysia will oversee the successful execution of the objective as the ASEAN-ISE Secretariat.

Objectives of the initiative include creating an ESG ecosystem to promote sustainability in ASEAN, enabling Participating Exchanges to scale cost-efficient solutions, and allowing Participating Exchanges to assist ESG-compliant corporates to maximise business value through quality disclosures.

The Participating Exchanges will consider local considerations and the maturity level of their respective markets.

They will adopt and implement “ASEAN Exchanges Common ESG Metrics” in their ESG reporting platforms.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
