The first workshop was held on 20/10/2025 under the title “From Impact to Capital Markets”, it targeted companies included in the ASE20 Index sample, with the aim of clarifying the compatibility between the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards and the Sustainability Disclosure Standards (S1 and S2) issued in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), to support these companies in preparing climate-related disclosure reports.
A second training workshop was held on 21/10/2025 under the title "The Sustainability Journey," targeting companies listed on the First Market. This workshop aimed to enable participants to understand the fundamental pillars of the most prominent global sustainability frameworks, in light of the obligation for these companies to fill a form assessing their level of commitment to apply of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles starting from next year.
These workshops are part of a series of initiatives which targeted raising awareness among listed companies about the importance of sustainability disclosure and enhancing their commitment to relevant standards.
