How Speeki Simplifies IFRS Sustainability Disclosure for Multi-Standard Reporting
In a world where sustainability reporting is becoming not just a best practice but a regulatory expectation, companies in Australia are navigating the complexities of disclosure with a fresh sense of urgency. One of the most transformative developments in this space has been the introduction of the IFRS sustainability disclosure standards—IFRS S1 and S2—by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) in 2023.
These new global standards are designed to bring consistency, comparability, and clarity to how businesses disclose climate-related and broader sustainability risks and opportunities. But as many organisations are quickly discovering, aligning with IFRS S1 and S2—while also maintaining reporting to other frameworks—can be a complex task.
That’s where Speeki comes in. Purpose-built for modern ESG compliance, Speeki offers an intelligent and integrated platform that simplifies IFRS sustainability disclosure while enabling seamless multi-standard reporting—all in one place.
Understanding IFRS Sustainability Disclosure in the Australian Context
Australia is on the cusp of major regulatory changes concerning sustainability reporting. With growing momentum from the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and rising pressure from investors and stakeholders, companies are now expected to disclose credible, relevant, and forward-looking sustainability information.
The IFRS S1 standard provides a framework for general sustainability-related disclosures, requiring companies to report on material risks and opportunities that may influence enterprise value. Meanwhile, IFRS S2 focuses specifically on climate-related disclosures, aligning with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations—something Australian firms are already becoming familiar with.
For Australian businesses, aligning with IFRS S1 and S2 is not just about global compliance—it’s about demonstrating leadership, transparency, and accountability in an evolving sustainability landscape.
The Complexity of Multi-Standard Sustainability Reporting
While IFRS S1 and S2 aim to unify reporting globally, many companies still operate in a hybrid reporting environment. This means disclosing to other frameworks such as the GRI Standards, SASB Standards, or voluntary ESG metrics tailored to industry needs.
Managing multiple reporting requirements can become overwhelming. Teams often deal with fragmented data, inconsistent formats, siloed workflows, and duplicated efforts across departments. This complexity not only increases the risk of non-compliance but also dilutes the quality of the sustainability insights presented to stakeholders.
Speeki understands this challenge and tackles it head-on.
