FRC update ESG intentions

Posted on February 3, 2023 by Editor

The UK’s Financial Reporting Council (FRC), which published its first Statement of Intent on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) in 2021, has updated its earlier statement setting out the areas that remain challenging in ESG reporting.
