The Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) today unveiled the Principles-Based Sustainable and Responsible Investment Taxonomy for the Malaysian Capital Market (SRI Taxonomy) to help advance the nation's climate and sustainability agenda.
The SRI Taxonomy also aims to contribute towards the existing national climate and sustainability agenda, thereby reinforcing the Malaysian capital market’s role in supporting a just and orderly transition to low carbon economy. This would also promote greater awareness and adoption of sustainability practices within corporate Malaysia. In this regard, the SRI Taxonomy is intended to complement and support existing national laws and policies.
The Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) is issuing this Public Response Paper in response to the feedback received pursuant to the Public Consultation Paper on the proposed Principles-Based Sustainable and Responsible Investment Taxonomy for the Malaysian Capital Market dated 17 December 2021.
