The framework

What it is, and why it matters.

IFRS S2 (Climate-related Disclosures) is the standard issued by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) for climate-related financial disclosures. In Brazil, CVM 193/2023 established adoption of the standard; CVM 244 revised the timeline and made adoption voluntary.

The standard organizes disclosures into four pillars: Governance (how the company oversees climate risks and opportunities), Strategy (current and projected impacts on the business model), Risk Management (identification and mitigation processes) and Metrics and Targets (GHG emissions, quantified transition and physical risks).

IFRS S2 absorbed the TCFD recommendations and uses SASB as its reference for industry metrics. Companies already reporting TCFD or SASB have a head start when moving to the standard.

The ISSB (International Sustainability Standards Board) is the board created in 2021 by the IFRS Foundation, the same foundation that maintains the IFRS accounting standards. In June 2023, the ISSB published its first two standards: IFRS S1 and IFRS S2.

IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 work together. IFRS S1 sets the general requirements: how to disclose any sustainability-related risk or opportunity that affects company value, with rules on materiality and connection to the financial statements. IFRS S2 applies that logic to climate and details what to disclose: Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, scenario analysis, physical and transition risks and climate targets.

In Brazil, CVM Resolution 193/2023 brought IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 into the capital market, with mandatory adoption planned for listed companies from 2026. CVM Resolution 244, of May 2026, revised that timeline and made adoption voluntary, under a comply-or-explain regime: companies that do not publish must explain why. The standard remains the reference for investors, banks and global customers.

Applicability

Who it applies to.

  • Brazilian listed companies that want to adopt IFRS S2 voluntarily. It signals ESG maturity to the market and prepares them for the next regulatory round.
  • Companies under pressure from investors, banks or international funds for climate financial disclosure aligned with IFRS.
  • Organizations that already report TCFD and need to migrate to the IFRS S2 format, with adjustments to scope and granularity.

How we deliver

From source to auditor.

01 · step

We map the company's current disclosure (TCFD, CDP, integrated report) and identify the gaps against the IFRS S2 requirements.

02 · step

We structure the disclosures across the four pillars, combining quantitative emissions data (the Mangue platform) with qualitative governance and strategy information.

03 · step

We deliver the IFRS S2 disclosure draft ready for review by the independent auditor, with industry SASB mapping and cross-reference to CDP.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions.

Is IFRS S2 mandatory in Brazil?

No. IFRS S2 is the international standard for climate-related financial disclosure. The CVM, Brazil's Securities and Exchange Commission, set out its adoption in Resolution 193/2023, and CVM Resolution 244 revised the timeline and made adoption voluntary. The regime is comply-or-explain: companies that do not disclose must explain why. Investors, banks and global customers still ask for the standard.

What is the difference between IFRS S2 and TCFD?

TCFD, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, is the set of recommendations that IFRS S2 absorbed. IFRS S2, the climate-related financial disclosure standard, organizes information into four pillars: governance, strategy, risk management and metrics and targets. Companies already reporting TCFD have a head start in the migration, with adjustments to scope and granularity.

I already have a GHG Inventory. Do I need IFRS S2?

The greenhouse gas inventory feeds one of the four IFRS S2 pillars, metrics and targets. The climate-related financial disclosure standard also asks for governance, strategy, risk management and quantified physical and transition risks. The inventory is an input; it does not replace the disclosure.

Does Mangue Tech audit or certify the IFRS S2 report?

No. Mangue Tech structures the disclosures under IFRS S2, the climate-related financial disclosure standard, and delivers the draft ready for review by the independent auditor. Mangue Tech does not audit, certify or verify: the opinion and assurance come from external verification bodies such as Bureau Veritas, SGS, DNV and TÜV.

What kind of company is IFRS S2 a good fit for?

IFRS S2, the climate-related financial disclosure standard, serves three profiles: listed companies adopting it voluntarily to signal maturity to the market; companies under pressure from investors, banks or international funds to disclose climate-related financial risk; and organizations that already report under TCFD, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, and need to switch formats.

What is IFRS S2?

IFRS S2 is the ISSB standard for climate-related financial disclosures. It asks the company to report how climate risks and opportunities affect its cash flow, its access to capital and its value, across four pillars: governance, strategy, risk management and metrics and targets, including Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.

What is the difference between IFRS S1 and IFRS S2?

IFRS S1 sets the general requirements for disclosing any sustainability-related risk or opportunity that affects company value. IFRS S2 is specific to climate and details emissions, scenarios and targets. Both were published by the ISSB in June 2023 and are applied together. In Brazil, after CVM 244, adoption of both is voluntary.

What is the ISSB?

The ISSB is the International Sustainability Standards Board, the IFRS Foundation board created in 2021 to issue global, investor-focused sustainability disclosure standards. It published IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 in 2023. The same foundation maintains the IFRS accounting standards, which brings sustainability reporting closer to financial reporting.

What changed from CVM 193 to CVM 244?

CVM Resolution 193/2023 brought IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 into the Brazilian capital market, with mandatory adoption planned for listed companies from 2026. CVM Resolution 244, of May 2026, revised that timeline and made adoption voluntary, under a comply-or-explain regime: companies that do not publish must explain why.
