Expertise
ESG Reporting and Disclosure
We provide comprehensive support for your ESG reporting.
From the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, to the EU Taxonomy and Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive: ESG regulations are and will continue to be an area of dynamic change. Political and societal changes are key drivers of development here, presenting complex challenges for companies which need to serve legal regulations, diverse stakeholder interests as well as additional frameworks or ratings in the ESG environment. These diverse requirements and standards create increased complexity and make it harder to provide consistent and efficient ESG reporting. We can help you keep an overview of this challenging environment, build robust reporting structures, and securely and reliably implement regulatory requirements.
Solution approach
Our solution approach
Viable reporting strategy : Together we ensure your reporting capability
Every sustainability report requires a viable reporting strategy. This is much more than just meeting regulatory requirements: We help you to usefully interlink different reporting standards and obligations and integrate them into existing processes, governance structures and management approaches. Our goal is to treat sustainability reporting not as an isolated project, but to establish it as an integral part of regular business operations: efficient, comprehensive and future-proof. This means,
- that together, we identify relevant reporting obligations, standards and ESG ratings – always in line with your ambitions and goals.
- we analyze your sustainability topics and prioritize them in a specific way, for example in the context of a materiality analysis as per CSRD.
- we use a gap analysis to identify gaps and derive action fields.
- we define clear responsibilities and new reporting processes, and put in place appropriate internal control systems.
- we show you how to make your data collection and reporting processes efficient, for example by choosing the right software. In doing so, we consider how you can subsequently make targeted use of ESG data and processes for corporate governance and ESG performance management.
- we support you in strategically anchoring sustainability topics within your corporate structure by analyzing, optimizing and sustainably aligning existing processes and governance structures.
Roles and responsibilities : We involve your employees at an early stage
From our projects we know: Successful sustainability reporting starts with the right timing. Starting early creates planning certainty and valuable room for strategic decisions. A key success factor here is getting the relevant people around the table early on and on a cross-departmental basis. This enables the creation of solutions that are supported by your employees right from the outset. An equally important element is to clearly define future roles and responsibilities. After all, only by establishing responsibilities early on can sustainability reporting be effectively and enduringly integrated into your company.
