IFRS Sustainability Reporting: Types of Risks and its Differences

Globally the IFRS Sustainability S1 & S2 is becoming the dominant standard for sustainability reporting, either by adaptation or outright implementation to regional regulatory requirements.

A key component is understanding corporate sustainability RISKS from the perspective of Physical and Transition Risks.

As a sustainability practitioner, you will be needed to analyse and quantify these risks based on your organization’s operations, capabilities and regulatory requirements.

Here’s a simplified table highlighting the differences between Physical and Transition Risks in terms of its :
➡️ definition
➡️ types
➡️ examples
➡️ objectives
➡️ financial implications
➡️ performance impact

Organizations should look at sustainability reporting as a tool to bring them into the future and navigate the difficulties when it comes to the primary sustainability pillars EOES (Economic, Operations, Environmental, Social). It should not just be something written down for requirement’s sake, without serious forethoughts and considerations on outcomes.
