External assurance plays a key role in enhancing trust and confidence in financial and non-financial reporting.
With the goal of enhancing the trust and confidence investors, regulators and other stakeholders have in sustainability information the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) has developed a landmark, global sustainability assurance standard.
This proposed International Standard on Sustainability Assurance (ISSA) 5000, General Requirements for Sustainability Assurance Engagements, was issued for public consultation on August 2 and stakeholders have until December 1 to provide feedback and insights to the IAASB.
The final standard will be issued before the end of 2024.
Join the Irish Auditing & Accounting Supervisory Authority (IAASA) and IAASB webinar to hear about ISSA 5000.
