Malaysia Platform for Business and Biodiversity pledges to adopt mandatory requirements on biodiversity assessment in business

Malaysia Platform for Business and Biodiversity (MPBB) pledged to adopt mandatory requirements for all businesses to disclose their impacts and dependencies on biodiversity during the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). Interim chairman Syed Mohazri Syed Hazari stated that this was the fastest way of levelling the playing field and creating fair competition so environmental performance will be recognised, valued and accounted for in the same way as financial performance.
