CPA Canada comment letter on proposed changes to IFRS Foundation constitution
The IFRS Foundation trustees issued a consultation relating to the governance and composition of a proposed International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). If established, the new board will develop a set of global standards for reporting on environmental, social and governance matters.
CPA Canada supports the IFRS Foundation’s proposal to create a new ISSB under its governance structure and we commend the IFRS Foundation for moving quickly on the establishment of an ISSB while ensuring it is set up to operate in an effective manner.
