The Investor Relations Society reposted this
The Investor Relations Society has commented on the FCA’s Prospectus proposals, raising concerns about materiality timeframes and quantification/ assessment issues if climate-related disclosures are to be required in prospectuses. We also support the concept of a safe harbour for forward looking disclosures, but the proposed criteria need further review to ensure they cover forward-looking climate-related and transition reporting. https://lnkd.in/eu-mWFiC

The Investor Relations Society reposted this
The Society has commented on the FCA’s 'Value for Money' proposals, supporting transparency of pension fund investment in the UK’s ‘unlisted’ quoted SME markets (AIM and Aquis) separately from unlisted equity, as this could help AIM companies with their investor targeting. https://lnkd.in/ewZnq5wT
