Three big new sustainability reporting proposals from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG), and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) promise to change how companies communicate sustainability information to their stakeholders. E/S information that does not affect investors, but is relevant to the impact companies have on civil society and stakeholders other than investors (stakeholder data). Principles for Responsible Investment & UNEP Finance Initiative, Universal Ownership: Why Environmental Externalities Matter to Institutional Investors, Appendix IV. Shortly after the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) tentatively confirmed that companies using its climate-reporting standard must disclose their Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, board chair Emmanuel Faber took to Twitter, making the bold claim that the board was rewriting economics. Socially responsible investing. Thats where we are going.. 24 February 2023 The ISSBs and SECs definitions of materiality are not far off from this. This view of materiality doesnt ask the company to have a crystal ball, only to think about likely future risks or events such as resource shortages or environmental damage that could change the way they structure their business model and, ultimately, do business. Gulf or gap? Such investors might prefer that companies in their portfolios make less money, i.e., that beta be reduced, if it were to lead to better employment opportunities. This cost was more than 50 percent of the profits those companies reported. We thank Paisley Ashton-Holt, Tom Beagent, Henry Daubeney, Will Evison, Alan McGill, Andreas Ohl, Atul Patel, Naomi Rigby and Katie Woods for their insightful contributions to this article. Over long time periods, beta is influenced chiefly by the performance of the economy itself, because the value of the investable universe is equal to the percentage of the productive economy that the companies in the market represent. Global Consumer Insights Pulse Survey - June 2022, Ukraine: Tax, Legal and People considerations. Materiality: The First Step in ESG Management The easiest way to think of materiality is as a relevancy filter for the issues that matter most to an organization. Copyright 19972023 IPE International Publishers Limited, Registered in England, Reg No. Were taking that all very, very seriously. Since it cannot meet that essential accounting expectation of being a going concern unless reinvestment does take place, this provision must also be made upon the balance sheet, upfront, now. The General Requirements Standard creates an umbrella of disclosure expectations that will apply across all of the ISSBs forthcoming sustainability topic-specific standards, including the Climate Standard. ESRSISSB . More immediately, the difference between an efficient response to COVID-19 and an inefficient one could create a $9 trillion swing in GDP. It is quite different, for example, from the EU's more ambitious 'double materiality' approach in its proposal for a Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the mandate given to expert body EFRAG to draft detailed reporting standards. This change will not create a significant additional burden but will make the project more coherent and consistent with evolving fiduciary standards. Diversified shareholders will internalize the costs of this negative-sum behavior through the economic harm the rest of their portfolios absorb. Contributions to inequality also reduce GDP over time. Economists have long recognized that profit-seeking firms in free-market economies will not account for negative externalities, and there are many profitable strategies that harm stakeholders, society, and the environment. Finally, from a rhetorical perspective, it is important that the final documentation of the ISSB standards acknowledge that investors have significant interests in beta impacts. Companies occasionally need to report new information and markets need to work out how to digest it. So, for example, if a company is planning on extracting water at a rate that is not sustainable based on the volume of water available in the area, then this will certainly ultimately have an effect on their finances because in 15 years they will have run out of water to extract or they will have to invest money sooner in exploring alternate sources of extraction. Climate change denial has been a tough ask this summer. But we are trying to. Secondly, although climate science makes some environment-related sustainability information relatively simple to calculate and put a value on, companies will find it a great deal harder to quantify and set the bar for materiality for social and governance issues and other environmental issues like biodiversity. 685 1784 92. The version of enterprise value we use in financial reporting today would consider the effect of many sustainability matters on long-term cash flows as hardly material since they are inherently uncertain and typically have little effect on the business today. Pursuant to applicable rules of professional conduct, portions of this publication may constitute Attorney Advertising. This includes activities that relate to other organisations in the value chain or in the sector if they could have potential consequences for the company itself. Firstly, the time element will force companies reporting under either the ISSBs and SECs rules to include outward impacts since, logically, the outward impact will eventually work its way inward. Yet away from the awkward realities of climate change, the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) was proving it could respond in a crisis. Expanding the ISSB definition of materiality to include beta information would not significantly expand the reporting burden. The IFRSs accounting rules issued and maintained by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), on which the ISSB is modeled, have been adopted in over 100 countries, and the IFRS intends to co-develop the two independent sets of standards to ensure their connectivity, compatibility and relevancy to investors. IFRS 13 is one standard that does refer to future amounts when it talks about valuation techniques that convert future amounts (such as cash flows or income and expenses) to a single current (discounted) amount. "The focus should be on double materiality and not on enterprise value," the HSBC Bank (UK) Pension Scheme said in its submission to the ISSB. None of these practical difficulties, however, ought to derail efforts to align. All topical standards have been changed to mirror the new four pillar structure. In this Alert, we outline the contents of the draft standards focusing on the General Requirements Standard and situate them within the context of converging voluntary disclosure standards and increasing regulation. At a high level, the ISSB aims to help companies streamline their sustainability disclosures to facilitate an apples to apples comparison by investors. Secondly, enterprise value, by definition, takes a market view and has a long-term perspective. As discussed in the Freshfields Report and the PRI Report, decision-useful information extends beyond information that affects enterprise value; if a companys E/S impact has the potential to affect beta, diversified shareholders may well act on that information by, for example, voting against directors who fail to act to mitigate negative externalities. For similar reasons, Professor John Coffee predicted in a recent article that beta would surpass ESG integration as a motive for investor activism: This latter form of activism [beta focused] is less interested in whether the target firms stock price rises (or falls) than in whether the activist investors engagement with the target causes the total value of this investors portfolio to rise (which means that the gains to the other stocks in the portfolio exceed any loss to the target stock). Even without such alignment, in valuation terms enterprise value is typically determined by calculating the net present value of forecast future cash flows and takes a market perspective which by nature encompasses all available information and takes a very long-term view (into perpetuity). This means that companies have to report on both the financial and environmental implications of their sustainability efforts. The reason is that if a companys activities create the type of economic risk that threatens beta, it will almost surely be at risk for damaged reputation, increased regulation, and the increased costs that follow regulation. This, they say, would be a failure of the goals of sustainability reporting to influence corporate behaviour. Centrality of TCFD and SASB: As described above, the ISSBs General Requirements Standard centers on the four pillars of the TCFD framework, which are geared toward integrating sustainability risk assessment into the core processes of a companys business, as well as the industry-specific disclosures outlined by the SASB Standards. We must focus on what unites us in agreement and we cannot afford for minor differences to get in the way of progress. Financial reporting standards have proven to be a driving force of stability and development in our global capital markets. This is not unfamiliar territory new accounting standards and regulatory reporting requirements come up from time to time. The double-materiality concept as 'guiding principle' in the GRI Standards From climate change and biodiversity loss, to growing inequality, modern slavery, and scarcity of resources, our society and planet face the most significant challenges of all times. For ESG integration, the standard must call for disclosures of E/S matters that investors can use to model an enterprises value and future cash flows. Thinking about the water usage example above, its clear that a company would end up reporting much the same information under the ISSBs and SECs proposals as they would under EFRAGs. SASB's materiality map was so valued by the markets because it illuminated what mattered per industry. Climate change is an emergency that requires all hands on deck. Like the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions (SEC) recently proposed climate-related risk disclosure rule1, the ISSBs General Requirements and Climate Standards are based on the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). This is similar to the architecture of the TCFD and ISSB. When a company saves costs with cheaper, carbon-intense energy, it trades away climate mitigation (which supports the intrinsic value of the economy) in exchange for more internal profit. The increasing recognition of the importance of beta to investors could make a beta-free ISSB standard obsolete from the start. Whatever the aim, they missed. Corporate social responsibility. As one work describes this, [a]ccording to widely accepted research, alpha [over- or under-performance of individual securities] is about one-tenth as important as beta [and] drives some 91 percent of the average portfolios return. Stephen Davis, Jon Lukomnik, and David Pitt-Watson,What They Do with Your Money(2016). USS welcomed the ISSBs decision to build on the structure of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations in IFRS S1 and IFRS S2. EFRAGs proposed standard only asks that companies break the shackles of certainty and short-term thinking to report on the things that they are likely already or should be factoring into their business planning anyway. For example, an investor might conclude that a company can avoid reputational, regulatory, and supply chain risks by adopting better labor and energy practices. While this trade might financially benefit a shareholder with shares only in that company, it harms a diversified shareholder by threatening beta. One of the biggest is that all three proposals define what is material in different ways. At a conceptual level, the General Requirements Standard attempts to unite multiple overlapping approaches to sustainability disclosure. Information on a company is material and should therefore be disclosed if "a reasonable person would consider it [the information] important", according to the US Securities and Exchange Commission . If companies increase their own bottom line by emitting extra carbon, by refusing to share technology that will slow the pandemic, or by contributing to inequality, the financial benefits earned for their individual companies may be dwarfed by comparison to the costs the economy bears. All of this will edge companies closer towards a materiality assessment based on both the companys impact on the world around it as well as the potential effect on its enterprise value; in other words, and for all practical purposes, applying a double materiality concept. They threaten the functioning of the economic, financial and wider systems on which investment performance relies. This publication is distributed with the understanding that the author, publisher and distributor of this publication and/or any linked publication are not rendering legal, accounting, or other professional advice or opinions on specific facts or matters and, accordingly, assume no liability whatsoever in connection with its use. In other words, an enterprise cannot be accurately valued without information concerning the threats it poses or benefits it promises to beta. Double vs single vs dynamic materiality is one of the main pieces of contention between the ISSB and EFRAG in the design of their sustainability standards but what if this was only theoretical and in practice their thinking aligns? It defines a liability as a present obligation of the entity arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow from the entity of resources embodying economic benefits. For an overview of the SECs proposed climate rule and its implications, please refer to our March 24 Alert., 2. However, there are nuances in the definitions which mean that companies may ultimately end up reporting broadly similar information under all three reporting frameworks. All Climate Climate Risk CSRD Disclosure Disclosures Double Materiality Emissions ESG Management ESG Ratings ESG Strategy ESRS EU Financing Green Finance How To InsightsEN ISSB Materiality Net Zero Regulation Reporting Reporting Standards Risk Scope 3 Emissions Social Standards Sustainable Finance Taxonomy Uncategorized . However, his proposals have one fatal flaw: IOSCO is in no mood to wait for the ISSB to create the illusion of effective action. Ruchir Agarwal and Gita Gopinath, A Proposal to End the COVID-19 Pandemic, IMF Staff Discussion Note (May 2021). Excluding beta information from the reporting standard does not reflect evolving recognition of the importance of beta. A large percentage of securities markets beneficiaries are diversified, and the relative importance of beta compared to alpha should affect these investors calculus when considering the impact of a portfolio companys social and environmental externalities. On 3 November 2021, at COP26, the IFRS Foundation Trustees announced the creation of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). These projects help investors determine a companys fair share of a limited common resource or the proper social and environmental boundaries for individual companies that are necessary to preserve the systems upon which all companies rely. Thats why we were created. We will not move. This means stewardship that is less focused on the risks and returns of individual holdings, and more on addressing systemic or beta issues such as climate change and corruption. Companies will finally have clear instructions on how to report on their sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities, and investors and other stakeholders will be able to better track progress, compare performance, and hold companies to account. Considering how each proposed standard might operate provides a window into their practical similarities and calls into question the notion that the materiality definitions of each of the different standard setters are irrevocably different, given the broad nature of what can affect enterprise value. Frederick Alexander is Founder of The Shareholder Commons; Holly Ensign-Barstow is Director of Stakeholder Governance & Policy at B Lab. As with many new developments in reporting, companies will need to work out how to provide the right amount of information to the right stakeholders without overwhelming them with hundreds of pages of additional reporting. It explains the approaches of the GRI Standards ( impact materiality), the IFRS' International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) ( financial materiality) and the incoming European Sustainability Reporting Standards ( double materiality), and how they interconnect. The application of 'double materiality' has always been a central theme for GRI since its inception, largely due to the fact that its development is based on a multi-stakeholder approach, in which trade unions and civil society groups hold significant influence. The expectation is that this cost will be outweighed by the benefits to the market and companies of having more complete, transparent, comparable and reliable information on which to base resource allocation decisions. Financial materiality means that the activity has an effect on the companys cash flows or enterprise value (consistent with the SEC and ISSB). The focus of the General Requirements on ESG integration appears to reject the notion that information relevant to beta is important to shareholders. They must do so again. Welcome to IPE. Pause on that figure: prioritization of individual company financial return leads to one third of all listed companies around the globe destroying more value for society than they create for their own shareholders. Interest 61 (1971). If their content is aligned then the effect will be powerful. Not all investors are diversified, so if a company protects beta by accepting reduced enterprise value, it may be favoring diversified investors at the expense of concentrated investors. Double materiality can be a decision left to jurisdictions such as the EU, China or the US, which are currently working on their own systems of mandatory climate risk reporting. As such, we urge you to rethink your whole approach to this issue. The ISSB documentation expressly rejects double materiality, the standard European regulators embrace, which couples financial materiality with information designed to inform other stakeholder data. As important as these two categories of impact may be, they are likely to be more heterogeneous than shareholder interests in beta, making them less likely to be good candidates for standardized disclosure. But double materiality adds inside-out information, namely, information relevant to the companys impacts on society and the environment. Equally, if a sustainability issue might at some point in the short, medium or long term have an effect on a companys activities (even if it is not currently affecting the companys cash flows), then it too must be reported now. A new report from the law firm Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer (the Freshfields Report) explains how externalized costs affect investment trustees fiduciary duties: System-wide risks are the sort of risks that cannot be mitigated simply by diversifying the investments in a portfolio. Murphy suggests environmental impact and financial reporting can be integrated by using two provisions following the methodology in International Accounting Standard 37, which deals with provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets. For financial reporting, for example, companies assess materiality from the perspective of one stakeholder group: investors and lenders, the primary users of financial statements. Alongside this conceptual harmonization, the ISSBs framework advances a general organizational convergence among some of the most widely used global standard-setting bodies. Yet the scope of externalities is enormous. As unlikely as this proposition seems, the Business Roundtable, an organization composed of most major U.S. corporations CEOs, promotes this idea under the moniker stakeholder capitalism, and claims that if a company treats all its stakeholders well (which can be another way of saying it optimizes its E/S impact), it will also maximize its return to its shareholders over the long term: While we acknowledge that different stakeholders may have competing interests in the short term, it is important to recognize that the interests of all stakeholders are inseparable in the long term. Business Roundtable, Redefined Purpose of a Corporation: Welcoming the Debate (August 2019). Swiss Re Institute, The Economics of Climate Change: No Action Not an Option (April 2021). These phrases refer to the need for investors to pay more attention to the environmental and social (E/S) impacts of the businesses in which they invest. But the context for beta-relevant data is such that an enterprise value-based E/S disclosure regime may in many cases be very close to good enough for beta as well. Taking IAS 37 as a starting point is not as simple as it might seem. Sustainability reporting standards promise to do the same. The General Requirements Background section described inside-out and financial materiality in the following paragraphs (a) and (b): (a) disclosures to stakeholders about sustainability matters that have impacts on people, the environment and the economythese disclosures normally provide the broadest range of information because they aim to meet the needs of multiple stakeholders. The ISSB indicated that its aim is for the complete set of ISSB Standards, once finalized, to provide a comprehensive global baseline of sustainability disclosures for investors in global capital markets to use when assessing the value of companies. "While the ISSB uses the so-called financial materiality as a basis, the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) defines the double materiality, i.e., the effect of companies on society and the effect of society on companies in the Corporate Sustainability Reporting . Changes in the reserve would flow into the statement of comprehensive income and then through the statement of changes in equity. Companies that prioritize their financial return to shareholders face a prisoners dilemma with respect to such resources, and unchecked market competition will inevitably lead to their depletion. If the company were degrading the environment by causing drought with over-extraction then clearly EFRAGs materiality definition would require this outward impact to be reported. Whats material depends on the issue, the context, the time frame and the stakeholder. Read our policy. In light of the diversification mandate of Modern Portfolio Theory, and the importance of beta to diversified investors, this anachronistic hyper-focus on enterprise value is troubling. Many of the comment letters on both standards are broadly supportive, but there were some niggles among the praise. That is why we attempt to regulate companies: the choices that are best from an individual company financial perspective are not always best for society and the environment. Despite all the talk of urgency from IOSCO, the climate-change standard will not be in place until next year. The law governing investment fiduciaries is evolving to make it clear that fiduciary obligations permitor even requirebeta management. Diversified investors internalize the collective costs of such externalities (more than $2 trillion in 2018 according to the Schroders report cited above) because they degrade the systems upon which economic growth and corporate financial returns depend. By the same token, a proper sesquimateriality standard would elicit the inside-out E/S data that was likely to impact the social and environmental systems that support beta. Such a standard, rising above a single focus on financial materiality but rooted in investor return, would not rise to the level of double materiality, and might best be described as sesquimateriality.. Planetary forces much greater than cataclysmic weather events have decided that. Furthermore, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) which provides standards for companies to disclose their environmental and social impacts to a broader set of stakeholders than investors and is the most widely used disclosure system globally has pledged to coordinate its future standard-setting activities with those of the ISSB to provide two pillars of international sustainability reporting. Environmental, social and governance (ESG) integration. Thats why we were created. The ISSB and SEC do not, as EFRAG does, mention an outward element: the effect the company might have on externalities such as the environment or local communities.
