本研究は、ブラジル電力セクターの上場企業によるSASB基準への任意準拠状況を分析した。72件のサステナビリティ報告書の内容分析の結果、企業ごとに成熟度にばらつきがあり、大半が中程度から低い準拠レベルであることが判明した。経年変化はわずかであり、体系的なSASB採用には至っていない。この知見は、IFRSサステナビリティ開示基準への移行や財務的重要性に基づく透明性向上に示唆を与える。
English
This study analyzes the voluntary adoption of SASB standards by publicly traded companies in the Brazilian electric power sector. Content analysis of 72 sustainability reports reveals varying maturity levels, with most firms showing medium to low adherence and only a slight increase over 2022-2024. The findings highlight the lack of systematic adoption, which may inform the transition to IFRS sustainability disclosure standards and improve transparency of financially material information.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本ではSSBJによるISSB準拠基準が策定中だが、SASBは業種別開示の先例として参考になる。ブラジル電力セクターの事例は、任意基準の採用実態とIFRS移行への課題を示しており、日本企業がグローバルな開示基準対応を検討する際のベンチマークとなる。
In the global GX context
This paper provides empirical evidence on SASB adoption in an emerging-market context, offering insights for the global convergence toward ISSB standards. It reveals that even in a high-disclosure sector, voluntary adoption remains uneven, which is relevant for regulators and standard-setters aiming for consistent sustainability reporting worldwide.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Provides a case study of SASB adoption patterns and maturity levels in an emerging market, useful for comparative research on voluntary disclosure frameworks.
🏢実務担当者:Offers benchmarking data on SASB implementation in the electric power sector, helping companies assess their own disclosure readiness relative to peers.
🏛政策担当者:Highlights gaps in voluntary adoption that may inform regulatory design for mandatory sustainability reporting, especially in contexts transitioning to ISSB.
📄 Abstract（原文）
The objective of this study is to assess the level of adherence of sustainability reports issued by publicly traded companies in the Brazilian electric power sector to the SASB standards applicable to the sector. A content analysis was conducted on 72 sustainability reports, focusing on the voluntary disclosure of sustainability reporting metrics established by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, covering companies in the Electric Power subsector listed on B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (B3) for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024. The sector is recognized for exhibiting a high level of sustainability disclosure, and companies are subject to a minimum standard of social and environmental disclosure, in accordance with the enforcement required by the regulatory agency. The results indicate that the sector displays different levels of maturity in the disclosure of information aligned with SASB standards, with a few companies showing high adherence and the majority presenting medium to low levels of disclosure. Over the period analyzed, there was only a slight overall increase in the level of adherence. This finding demonstrates that systematic adoption of SASB requirements has not yet been achieved. Seeking such alignment may facilitate the adoption of IFRS sustainability disclosure standards, as well as enhance transparency and comparability of financially material information. The relevance of this study extends beyond the industry and geographic context in which it was applied, as it may serve as a starting point for future research on financial materiality in sustainability disclosure. This analysis provides relevant information for regulators, companies, investors, and other stakeholders.
