GRI, CSE to support companies to start sustainability reporting

11 Mar 2022

The Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) entered into an understanding with Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) in 2018 to foster effective sustainability performance and communication among listed companies. The CSE and GRI, through multiple engagement initiatives, have facilitated Sri Lankan listed companies to discover the business case and importance of embracing sustainability reporting. The collaboration offered the CSE an opportunity to deliver internationally renowned environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting expertise and know-how to Sri Lanka. GRI pioneered sustainability reporting in the late 1990s and has since become the globally accepted standard for enabling business, governments, and other organisations to understand and communicate their impacts on critical sustainability issues. Any organisation can use the GRI Standards to report on its impacts. The information produced by GRI reporting is highly relevant to many stakeholders, including investors, policymakers, and capital markets. As a part of the collaboration with the CSE, GRI is looking to support companies in Sri Lanka with the help of a consultant to take them through the process of preparing a GRI-based sustainability report. GRI and the CSE, in collaboration with a consulting organisation, will provide technical support free of any cost to the selected companies to enable them to prepare a GRI Standards-based report.  Companies that wish to avail themselves of this opportunity to join this exclusive programme are requested to write to the CSE requesting access to a selection survey that must be completed by sending an email to dilhani@cse.lk before 16 March 2022. The programme is exclusively for companies which are not using or referring to GRI Standards.
