Sustainability reporting: enhance transparency with our consulting service
Communicate your ESG performance and impact with our tailored approach
Sustainability reporting enables companies to communicate their performance and impact across environmental, social, and governance (ESG) dimensions. This practice enhances transparency by providing stakeholders with a deeper understanding of a company’s performance beyond financial metrics.
The report conveys the social, economic, and environmental performance of a company, as well as its future objectives in a clear and transparent manner. The goal is to enable stakeholders to understand the company's approach to sustainability and how it implements its mission and strategies.
Sustainability reports follow guidelines or methodologies that provide organizations with a framework for recognizing, evaluating, and reporting on sustainability issues relevant to their activities. Several well-known sustainability reporting frameworks exist, such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).
It is important to note that, as of 2024, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) in the EU requires companies to provide comprehensive sustainability reports covering environmental impact and social responsibility. This directive builds on prior regulations, emphasizing increased transparency and accountability. It is applicable to all large companies and listed SMEs in the EU, with the aim of providing thorough sustainability information to stakeholders.
