Disclosure focus
The objective of sustainability-related financial disclosures on strategy is to enable users of general purpose financial reports to understand an entity’s strategy for managing sustainability-related risks and opportunities.
This page should explain the strategy disclosure objective and map users to the detailed requirements on risks and opportunities, business model and value chain effects, strategy and decision-making, current and anticipated financial effects, and resilience. It should not require a separate generic strategy narrative or organisation-wide coverage figure.
This LRA educational guidance supports disclosure preparation. For the exact requirements, always refer to the official IFRS Foundation source.
