The CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) is a regulatory framework introduced by the European Union to enhance sustainability reporting for companies operating within the EU. It aims to promote transparency, standardization, and comparability of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) information.

Most companies are aware of the stringent reporting requirements under the CSRD. Large listed companies are expected to issue the first CSRD report over the 2024 fiscal year, and non-listed large companies over the 2025 fiscal year. That means these businesses have only months left to:

  • determine the priority ESG topics depending on their activities, location, strategy and engage with relevant stakeholders in this process,
  • determine the most adequate KPIs and how to collect and centralize this information and ultimately report this information in the standard European format.


Will you be ready in time to meet this tight reporting timeframe?
