Malaysian stock exchange Bursa Malaysia Berhad announced Monday a collaboration with BoardRoom Group, a provider of corporate and advisory services based in Singapore, to boost sustainability reporting solution adoption.

Bursa Malaysia said in a statement that the collaboration seeks to encourage wider adoption of the Centralized Sustainability Intelligence (CSI) Solution among Malaysian public listed companies (PLCs), with the goal of enhancing the quality of sustainability disclosures across the corporate sector.

The CSI Solution was developed by Bursa Malaysia in support of Malaysia’s transition to a low-carbon economy. It enables companies — listed and non-listed — streamline sustainability reporting.

Following its designation in March 2025 as the exchange’s official sustainability reporting channel, the CSI Solution’s disclosure module now supports the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) IFRS S1 General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information and IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures under the National Sustainability Reporting Framework (NSRF).

“Bursa Malaysia is committed to supporting Malaysian companies in their decarbonization journey and lowering their climate impact,

“This commitment is reflected in our decision to make CSI reporting tools, aligned with IFRS S1 and S2, accessible at no charge to all public listed companies,” said Fad’l Mohamed, Chief Executive Officer of Bursa Malaysia.

According to him, the firm’s collaboration with BoardRoom will extend the CSI Solution’s reach.

“Leveraging Boardroom’s established presence and sustainability advisory expertise in the corporate advisory space, we hope to support more companies in navigating evolving disclosure requirements and enhancing the quality of their sustainability reporting with greater confidence,” he added.

Angeline Aw, Group Chief Executive Officer of BoardRoom Group, said the firm is proud to partner with Bursa Malaysia, to scale the CSI Solution across the corporate sector.

“This collaboration builds on our strong and long-standing relationship with the exchange, underpinned by our shared commitment to strengthening corporate governance and
regulatory readiness,

“With our deep experience in serving public listed companies and expertise in Sustainability Reporting and Advisory, BoardRoom is well-positioned to support clients in adopting the CSI Solution and producing impactful sustainability reports,” she added.

Since its launch in June 2024, around 180 public limited companies (PLCs) have onboarded onto the CSI Platform.

All companies, not just PLCs but also mid-tier companies (MTCs) and small-medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to adopt the CSI Solution to strengthen their sustainability journey.

By leveraging its comprehensive suite of services, including an emissions calculator, a supplier management module, and a range of complementary value-added services delivered through a network of ecosystem partners, businesses can enhance their environmental performance and drive long-term value.
