SSFA issues new guidance for green and transition financing

This guide helps stakeholders in SEA apply the Singapore-Asia Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance.

The Singapore Sustainable Finance Association (SSFA) has launched its new guidance for leveraging the Singapore-Asia taxonomy in green and transition financing.

Created by SSFA's Taxonomy Workstream, this guide helps financial institutions and corporations in Southeast Asia apply the Singapore-Asia Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance (SAT) to develop credible green and transition financing.

Building on over a year of adoption, the SSFA guidance seeks to support further utilisation of the SAT by guiding data availability, treatment of interim thresholds, grandfathering provisions, meeting entity-level transition plan requirements, and the interpretation of amber categories.

The publication also presents preliminary guidance on how to reference the SAT when full alignment is not feasible.

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.
