The EU鈥檚 Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is here, but do you know if your company is impacted, how and when?
Are you impacted by CSRD?
The EU鈥檚 CSRD is the latest, and arguably the most seismic, entrant to the already crowded landscape of ESG disclosures.
Seen as central to the EU鈥檚 ambition to become the first climate neutral economy, CSRD - which replaces the Non-Financial Reporting Directive - requires companies to publicly report on sustainability impacts, risks and opportunities and publish this in their management report.
What companies disclose in these reports is determined by an assessment of the topics that are material to them (that is, financially material but also where a company鈥檚 operations have an environmental and/or social impact).
This is the concept of double materiality, and it is a cornerstone of CSRD.
It could be that you are already aware of CSRD but unsure whether it applies to your business (the scope goes beyond EU-based companies).
In which case, these Impact Trees will provide a better understanding of the 鈥榠f鈥�, 鈥榳hen鈥� and 鈥榟ow鈥�.
