Sustainability Accounting & Reporting: A Comprehensive Guide: Integrating ESG Metrics Into Financial Performance and Disclosure
Sustainability Accounting & Reporting is a comprehensive guide for finance leaders, analysts, and executives who need to integrate environmental, social, and governance performance into real financial decision-making. Written for the post-2025 regulatory landscape, this book moves beyond surface-level ESG discussion and delivers a rigorous, data-driven framework for measuring, valuing, and communicating sustainability outcomes with clarity and credibility.
The book shows you how to build sustainability reporting systems that align with global standards including IFRS S1, IFRS S2, the ISSB, GHG Protocol, CSRD, and emerging North American disclosure mandates. Graham Wexler breaks down how to turn qualitative commitments into quantifiable metrics, how to evaluate climate-related financial risk, and how to embed sustainability into forecasting, capital planning, supply-chain due diligence, and enterprise-wide performance management.
Inside, you will learn how to:
- Design an integrated sustainability accounting architecture
- Build real-time dashboards and KPI systems for carbon, water, waste, and social-impact metrics
- Align financial statements with material sustainability disclosures
- Evaluate Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions with precision and audit-readiness
- Prepare organizations for assurance, regulatory scrutiny, and investor expectations
- Connect sustainability performance to long-term enterprise value, risk, and cost structure
Sustainability Accounting & Reporting equips leaders with a practical, strategic blueprint for the next decade of corporate disclosure. For CFOs, controllers, FP&A professionals, sustainability teams, and board members, this book is an essential operating manual for navigating the new era of transparent, accountable business.
