How CSRC Regulations on China's Listed Company ESG Disclosures Align with MEE's Mandatory Environmental Information Reporting Requirement?

The Administrative Measures for Listed Company Information Disclosure, for the first time at the departmental regulation level, incorporates sustainability reports (including ESG disclosures) into the mandatory disclosure framework for China's listed companies. This marks the elevation of ESG disclosure from corporate social responsibility initiatives and stock exchange self-regulation to a compulsory regulatory requirement under government rules. The revision of the Listed Company Annual Report Content and Format Guidelines represents a constructive effort to bridge capital market supervision with environmental information disclosure requirement. This move helps direct investors' attention to environmental regulatory requirements, particularly the mandatory environmental disclosures by listed companies and their subsidiaries within the consolidated financial statements.

Listed Company Climate Action CATI Index 2023 Evaluation Report

The Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs (IPE) released the evaluation results of the 2023 Listed Company Climate Action CATI Index. The report indicates that overall China's listed companies have made progress in climate action. IPE believes that this 2023 CATI evaluation is a systematic background investigation before the release of the new rules on listed company ESG information disclosure, and to a certain extent, reflects the "baseline" of climate disclosure of listed companies.

A Comparative Analysis of China's Listed Company Self-Regulatory Guidelines with International Mainstream Rules

The "Self-Regulatory Guidelines for Listed Companies – Preparation of Sustainability Reports (Draft for Comments)", as a supporting document to the "Self-Regulatory Rules for Listed Companies – Sustainability Reporting (Trial)", aims to guide China's A-share listed companies in enhancing their sustainability disclosure capabilities, improving the standardization of sustainability report preparation, and strengthening the completeness and relevance of sustainability-related information. The Rules and the Guidelines mark a new phase in sustainability information disclosure in China's capital market. However, IPE's comparative analysis reveals that there are still significant differences between these requirements and mainstream international ESG disclosure standards. This discrepancy may lead to duplicate disclosures and impose additional costs.
