CSRD compliance

linked to strategy and long term (sustainable) performance

  • 24 October 2024

Join us

We will be discussing

CSRD mandates large companies to publish assured sustainability reports from 2025. Investors, regulators, and society at large are expected to respond to the ESG data provided in the reports as an indicator for the likelihood of sustainable performance over the longer term. A good ESG story in your (audited) sustainability statement will have a direct bearing on your cost of capital. And with effect from 2025 we expect to see further evidence of how more capital is being attracted to sustainable economic activities.

 
Understandably very many organisations have a sense of being overwhelmed as they face hundreds of new data points with most unable to see beyond the immediate data reporting challenges.

 

At this event company practitioners and international experts will discuss:
1. What does good ESG data management look like, and
2. A new international sustainability maturity guideline on where to start and how to build towards best practice in sustainability

 

This event is for you

  • Non-executive Directors (NED),
  • Executive Management,
  • Chief Sustainability Officers (CSO),
  • Chief Risk Officers (CRO),
  • ESG Controllers,
  • Sustainability managers,
  • CSRD program managers.
