Bursa Malaysia Berhad has introduced an enhanced prescribed format for sustainability disclosures through its Centralized Sustainability Intelligence (CSI) Platform effective on Monday, as part of its efforts to strengthen alignment with international disclosure standards.

The regulator said in a statement on Monday that the CSI Platform, its designated platform for sustainability reporting, enables listed issuers to streamline sustainability reporting in accordance with global standards, supporting Malaysia’s transition to a low-carbon economy.

Under the revised MAIN Market Listing Requirements (MAIN LR) and ACE Market Listing Requirements (ACE LR) (collectively, “Listing Requirements”), amended on December 23, 2024 to reflect the National Sustainability Reporting Framework (NSRF), companies on the MAIN and ACE Markets are mandated to adopt the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards through the CSI Platform.

Access to the mandatory reporting format will be provided at no cost.

Meanwhile, the prior ESG Reporting Platform has been decommissioned and the CSI Platform will serve as the official channel conforming to the Exchange’s prescribed
format.

Listed issuers on the MAIN Market and ACE Market must access the CSI Platform to generate the prescribed format that entails a summary of data for the metrics and targets,
which must then be disclosed in their respective Sustainability Statement, without any tampering.
