Is Your Company ESG Compliant?

As global awareness of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues grows, companies in Indonesia are under increasing pressure to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and ethical governance. This responsibility is not just about good intentions—it’s about measurable action. That’s where ESG reporting and assurance of the reports intersect.

Environmental, Social, and Governance criteria are increasingly used by investors, regulators, and stakeholders to evaluate the long-term viability and ethical impact of a company. But how can stakeholders trust ESG claims without a framework for verification? This is where ESG assurance comes in.

Assurance on ESG disclosures helps ensure that sustainability claims are:
• Accurate and data-driven
• Compliant with national and international standards
• Free from greenwashing or misrepresentation

Indonesia is now aligning with global sustainability trends by strengthening its ESG disclosure regulations. Under the Indonesian Financial Services Authority regulation POJK 51/2017, listed companies, financial institutions, and other key sectors are now required to prepare annual Sustainability Reports (Laporan Keberlanjutan).

• Environmental impact (e.g., emissions, energy use, waste management)
• Social initiatives (e.g., employee welfare, local community engagement)
• Governance practices (risk management, ethical conduct etc.)

Starting this year, large private companies and public entities are expected to align with international ESG standards such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) frameworks, and AA1000 issued by AccountAbility.
