Reporting & Disclosure
We believe that transparency is a cornerstone of sustainability. Effective reporting and disclosures not only showcase your organisation’s commitment to sustainable practices but also build trust among stakeholders.
With our expertise in sustainability consulting, we guide businesses through the intricacies of sustainability reporting, helping you communicate your progress and impact clearly and effectively.
CSRD Implementation
Unlock your business' full potential while making a positive impact—partner wiCSRD Gap Analysis and Readiness Review, including for Non-EU companies.
-
Our approach to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is focused on enabling companies to meet compliance requirements while leveraging the directive as an opportunity to enhance transparency, build trust, and drive meaningful impact. We work closely with clients to understand their unique operational and reporting landscapes, tailoring our guidance to align with their business model and sustainability goals.
Starting with a thorough assessment of current reporting practices, we help clients identify gaps relative to CSRD requirements, such as double materiality, data granularity, and reporting across environmental, social, and governance (ESG) dimensions. This foundation allows us to create a comprehensive roadmap to compliance that minimizes risk and enhances the quality of disclosures.
-
We emphasize integrating CSRD requirements into a company’s broader sustainability strategy, embedding reporting practices that enable data-driven decision-making and measurable progress on ESG goals. Our team provides ongoing support with data collection, analysis, and the development of key performance indicators (KPIs) that align with CSRD standards.
By focusing on high-quality, transparent reporting, we empower our clients to not only comply with CSRD but also demonstrate their commitment to sustainability, enhance investor and stakeholder trust, and position themselves as leaders in responsible business practices. Through this approach, we help clients turn regulatory compliance into a strategic advantage, driving sustainable growth and long-term resilience.
Corporate Reporting
Working with our clients and different internal stakeholders to build sustainability reports that follow standards such as CSRD or GRI. We cover all the stages from data collection, copywriting to final report design.
-
Our approach to corporate reporting under standards such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) is designed to provide clients with transparent, comprehensive, and high-quality disclosures that meet regulatory and stakeholder expectations.
We start by assessing our clients’ current reporting frameworks and identifying gaps relative to these standards, ensuring that reports address material environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues with the necessary detail and data accuracy. Through a tailored strategy, we guide clients in aligning their reporting practices with CSRD’s double materiality requirement and GRI’s established benchmarks, enhancing the consistency and comparability of their sustainability disclosures.
-
Our team emphasises the integration of sustainability reporting into clients’ broader business strategies, helping them develop and track performance indicators that demonstrate their commitment to ESG goals and responsible growth. By employing a structured process for data collection, verification, and analysis, we help clients establish reliable reporting mechanisms that enable regular, robust updates.
Our support extends beyond compliance, empowering clients to turn reporting into a strategic tool for engaging stakeholders, enhancing transparency, and driving continual improvement. This comprehensive approach not only meets the demands of regulatory bodies but also strengthens our clients’ reputation, helping them build trust with investors, customers, and the communities they serve.
Double Materiality Assessment
Engaging with stakeholders and understanding which sustainability topics are material, formulating company strategy and reporting.
-
Our approach to Double Materiality Assessments is built on the principle that financial and environmental impacts are interconnected, and understanding both dimensions is essential for comprehensive sustainability strategy. We work closely with clients to identify and evaluate the dual materiality of various ESG factors, examining how environmental and social issues not only affect their operations and financial performance (outside-in) but also how the organisation’s activities impact broader society and the environment (inside-out).
Through this structured assessment, we help clients identify issues of relevance to both stakeholders and financial performance, prioritising these in alignment with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and other regulatory requirements.
-
Our team employs a rigorous, data-driven approach, incorporating stakeholder engagement, industry benchmarking, and risk analysis to ensure that identified material issues reflect both current realities and emerging trends. We support clients in developing robust, integrated responses to these issues, helping them establish actionable goals, policies, and KPIs that address financial and environmental risks and opportunities.
By embedding double materiality into their core strategy, we enable clients to make informed decisions that drive both resilience and positive impact, balancing stakeholder expectations with long-term value creation and enhancing transparency in their sustainability reporting. This approach not only strengthens regulatory compliance but also builds a foundation for proactive, responsible business practices.
Horizon Scanning
Supporting companies to understand and prepare for upcoming reporting requirements. We support with the implementation of various upcoming regulations, including CSDDD and ESPR.
-
Our approach to Policy Horizon Scanning is proactive, data-informed, and deeply attuned to the rapidly evolving landscape of sustainability regulations. We closely monitor legislative developments across regions and sectors to help clients anticipate regulatory changes that may impact their operations, supply chains, and sustainability goals.
By identifying emerging policies early—such as new climate disclosures, circular economy requirements, or social impact regulations—we enable clients to stay ahead of compliance demands and mitigate potential risks. This forward-looking assessment includes analysing the scope, intent, and timeline of relevant policies, so clients can make informed decisions and adjust their strategies accordingly.
-
We integrate Policy Horizon Scanning into a broader sustainability strategy, ensuring that upcoming regulations become opportunities rather than obstacles. Our team translates complex regulatory trends into actionable insights, assisting clients in developing resilient, adaptable business models that align with anticipated standards.
By preparing for regulatory shifts, clients can not only achieve compliance but also strengthen stakeholder trust and competitive positioning. This approach to regulatory preparedness allows companies to proactively manage sustainability risks, capitalize on new policy-driven market opportunities, and demonstrate leadership in responsible business practices.
