The 2023 Responsible Investment Super Study, unveiled by RIAA this morning, highlights a remarkable shift in super fund transparency in the last few years. Amongst plenty of interesting insights, one story in particular stands out: the impact regulatory changes can have. Portfolio holdings disclosure by super funds has been a legal requirement in Australia since 31 March 2022. The graph shown here clearly shows the impact that this requirement has had on fund transparency year on year - from 23% achieving full disclosure to 100% year on year. This development heightens anticipation for the climate disclosure rules coming into effect in July 2024 for major companies. These rules will require fundamental shifts in how information is transferred. Notably, highlighting the need for radical enablement of the sharing of emissions related information from the asset level, through investment managers and ultimately up to the super funds.
