Materiality & Governance Architecture

Decide what matters. Govern what counts.

What This Service Covers

This service helps you detect what truly matters—by building a structured, repeatable way to identify material sustainability issues and embed them into your governance system. It ensures your board and senior management have clear roles, oversight pathways, and escalation logic to deal with climate, ESG, and broader sustainability risks and opportunities.

Why It Matters

Most companies either have too many checklists or no real sensing system. When everything is important, nothing is prioritized. Without a functioning materiality process and governance architecture, ESG efforts become fragmented, and disclosures become risky. Regulators (Bursa) and standards (IFRS S1/S2) are making this non-negotiable. Investors, meanwhile, expect your board to be visibly in control—not guessing.

Who This Is For

  • Public-listed companies preparing for ISSB and Bursa compliance

  • Board secretariats, sustainability teams, and risk officers

  • Groups with multiple entities, complex operations, or active investor scrutiny

  • Any organization that wants to go beyond box-ticking into real risk governance

Key Outcomes You Can Expect

  • A custom materiality system that reflects your business, not generic templates

  • Board-endorsed governance structure that integrates ESG and climate oversight

  • Aligned roles, escalation paths, and TORs that make decision-making accountable

How We Work

We structure the engagement across five phases over 6–8 weeks:

  • Kickoff and data collection: Understand your context and baseline

  • Materiality design: Prioritize issues through structured facilitation

  • Governance modeling: Align responsibilities and escalation channels

  • ERM and reporting integration: Link material issues to enterprise systems

  • Final toolkit delivery: Provide everything you need to activate and defend your structure


We work closely with your teams—Board Secretariat, Sustainability, Risk, and Strategy—ensuring buy-in and usability, not just compliance.
