Your definitive 2025 guide to mastering IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards is here.

Hey, imagine it’s 2025 and every major company on the planet is scrambling to speak the same sustainability language. That language is IFRS S1 and IFRS S2. This book is your front-row seat—and your cheat sheet. It takes you from the big-picture revolution (how the ISSB ended the alphabet-soup chaos and became the global baseline) straight into the nitty-gritty details: materiality that actually matters to investors, the four TCFD pillars on steroids, Scope 3 nightmares made manageable, scenario analysis that won’t make auditors cry, financed emissions relief you can actually use, transition plans that pass the greenwashing sniff test, and sector-specific SASB metrics that are now impossible to ignore. Short, clear sentences walk you through governance, strategy, risk integration, GHG accounting, NGFS scenarios, carbon credits rules, just transition risks, and the very latest 2025 amendments. Real 2025 examples from Unilever, Toyota, HSBC, and others show you exactly what “good” looks like right now.

Most books out there are either high-level cheerleading or dry standard-by-standard recitals written in 2023 before anyone had real filing experience. This one is different. It’s written in late 2025, after the first full reporting season, packed with fresh jurisdictional adoption maps, the new interoperability tricks that let European companies satisfy both ESRS and ISSB without double work, the exact Scope 3 Category 15 relief financial institutions fought for and won, and practical templates you can steal for your own reports. No other book bridges the academic theory (Oxford, Cambridge, Wharton insights) with battle-tested 2025 corporate disclosures like this one does. Students get the perfect course companion; professionals get a desk reference they’ll actually open when the regulator calls.
