CAPITAL Markets Malaysia (CMM), an affiliate of the Securities Commission, has published a consultation paper and is inviting public feedback on the new Sector Guides to supplement its Simplified Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Disclosure Guide (SEDG).
According to Bernama, the Sector Guides are intended as an extension of CMM’s SEDG launched on Oct 18, 2023 to provide small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in global supply chains with a streamlined and standardised set of guidelines around ESG disclosures expected of these companies that are aligned with relevant global and local ESG frameworks.
