CSRD & ESG Regulations
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is the EU’s new framework for corporate sustainability reporting. It expands the scope and depth of disclosure requirements, ensuring companies provide reliable, comparable, and verifiable information on their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance.
CSRD goes beyond carbon: it covers the full range of sustainability topics, from climate and biodiversity, to supply chain due diligence and corruption.

For large companies:
If your organisation meets the CSRD criteria, you will need to report on your ESG performance following the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). This means gathering detailed data across your operations and supply chain, conducting a double materiality assessment, and aligning with strict disclosure requirements.
For SMEs:
Even if you are not directly in scope, you will likely feel the trickle down effect. Many SMEs will be asked by corporate clients to provide emissions data, sustainability policies, and supply chain information — often at a level of detail they have not previously collected. Being prepared means staying competitive and avoiding disruption to key business relationships.
