In this session, we will explore how businesses are aligning with the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the EU Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). Get more insights on key challenges, emerging best practices, and the overall readiness of companies in providing meaningful ESG disclosures. Our research focused on assessing how companies are reporting on:

  • Double materiality assessment (process and outcomes)
  • Climate-related disclosures and Transition Plans
  • Sustainability due diligence
  • Biodiversity

We examined sustainability statements of 100 influential EU companies in top 5 high-impacts sectors prioritised for the development of EU sector standards: Textiles, Finance, Road Transportation, Energy, Food & Beverage.

The evidence and conclusions drawn from this research will contribute to the ongoing development of sector-specific sustainability standards and implementation guidance, with a particular focus on climate-related disclosures and due diligence.
