Breakout Session

This session will explore the power of SASB standards in enabling practical steps companies can take to develop reporting that meets investor needs in terms of both content and quality (whether reported in SEC filings or elsewhere). Panelists will also discuss how sustainability professionals can leverage internal resources such as their finance department to help with systems, processes and internal controls, as well as external resources like CPA and assurance firms. By connecting all these dots for attendees in the spirit of practical guidance, this session will also outline how the combination of all the above-mentioned elements and players is re-shaping the future of corporate accounting and finance.
