2024 is a pivotal year for corporate sustainability reporting. The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) has been on the horizon for some time, but this is the year in which CSRD reporting becomes a reality.
CSRD preparation has been a learning process, for many companies individually as well as for the sustainability profession as a whole. Companies with extensive sustainability reporting experience have had to review the approach and scope of their reporting, while companies new to sustainability reporting have had to come to grips with what sustainability means for them as a business and what impacts, risks and opportunities it presents.
While CSRD preparation is still in full swing, we have seen an enormous increase in the awareness and knowledge about how to approach CSRD reporting. In our work with clients, we have seen the growing clarity about the approach to double materiality assessment and specific data requirements. We have also experienced common challenges in engaging different business functions and integrating the reporting process throughout the organisation.
