Finance professionals working for corporate entities are more likely to encounter the SASB standards. These are corporations looking to understand how their sustainability and finance performances intersect. It is also possible that organisations that have the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) on their radar also are aware of SASB. The 2020 annual letter to corporate executives from Fink at BlackRock called out the value of SASB Standards and TCFD Framework aligned reporting.
If your organisation is using or contemplating the SASB standards the 2019 CIMA professional qualification syllabus and CGMA competency framework (2019 edition) can help you ask the right questions to identify your potential knowledge and skills gaps.
