CSRD Compliance: How We Help You Prepare for the Future of Sustainability Reporting
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) represents a major shift in how companies must report on sustainability.
As the scope of sustainability reporting expands, more data, transparency, and accountability are required. This directive will affect not only EU-based companies but also non-EU businesses with significant EU operations.
CSRD is an EU directive requiring companies to disclose comprehensive information on their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. It applies to both EU and third-countries (non-EU companies with significant operations in the EU). The directive covers various sustainability issues, including climate change, biodiversity, human rights, and workforce diversity, making it crucial for businesses to prepare now.
Is your business ready to comply? Let us guide you through the process, ensuring your business meets all the new regulatory requirements while maximising the benefits of robust sustainability practices.

Who needs to comply, and when?
Many companies will fall under the scope of CSRD. The timeline for first compliance depends on company size and location.
Even if you don’t meet these criteria, you may choose to make a voluntary disclosure. Click here to read more about voluntary disclosures.
Why is CSRD Important?
In addition to regulatory compliance, CSRD is a chance to enhance your sustainability practices, attract investors, and improve operational efficiency. Key benefits include:
- Company understanding: Uncover organisation material impacts, risks and opportunities relating to sustainability topics
- Regulatory Compliance: Avoid penalties and safeguard your reputation.
- Investor Confidence: Align with investor expectations by integrating sustainability into your strategy.
- Operational Improvement: Identify inefficiencies and opportunities for sustainable growth.
- Stakeholder Trust: Showcase your commitment to sustainability for customers, employees, and partners.
