Frank Bold, ShareAction, Accountancy Europe, Eurosif, Finance Watch and WWF, as members of the Informal Group on Sustainable Finance, have released a joint statement on the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD).
In the statement, five key recommendations are suggested that will embed environmental, climate, and social impacts into the company's long-term strategy.
The European Commission is currently running an open public consultation on guidelines for the Corporate Sustainable Due Diligence legislation (CSDDD). Read our submission to the consultation.
The EU Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) are now officially a Delegated Regulation, having been agreed by the President von der Leyen and the College of Commissioners. Barring an unexpected rejection by the co-legislators in the next two months (they can reject the standards, but cannot amend them), this is the final, fixed version of the ESRS.
The European Council has now agreed its negotiating mandate on SFDR 2.0. In several areas, it represents a significant regression from the Commission's proposal and the Parliament's subsequent draft report.
