ACCA welcomes the opportunity to provide comments on the Companies Commission of Malaysia’s (SSM) Consultative Document on the Proposed Amendments to the Companies Act 2016 [Act 777] on Sustainability Reporting. We support the policy intent of strengthening corporate transparency, accountability and long-term value creation through credible sustainability-related disclosures that enable informed decision-making.

We hope that our comments, which include feedback from a roundtable ACCA organised comprising senior business and finance leaders, are a helpful contribution to this process.

To read our comments in full, please download the consultation response document found on this page.
