Australia climate disclosure readiness: from obligation to operational advantage

Join Thomson Reuters and EY for a practical session designed for finance and reporting teams navigating new climate disclosure requirements.

Mandatory climate disclosure is no longer a future-state initiative—it’s becoming a recurring, auditable reporting cycle.

Many organisations are still relying on fragmented data, manual processes, and disconnected teams. As regulatory deadlines approach, the challenge is not just understanding requirements—but operationalising them with the same rigour as financial reporting.

This session focuses on what actually helps teams get ready: building a controlled, repeatable reporting process without adding significant time or risk to your reporting cycle.

Australia’s new climate disclosure requirements are being phased in, with first reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025.

• December year-end entities: lodgements due March/April 2026 

• June year-end entities: lodgements due September/October 2026 

This means preparation needs to start now—particularly for organisations aiming to avoid last-minute manual workarounds and audit challenges.
