As organisations strive to meet the requirements of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the journey can be both challenging and rewarding.
In this webinar, hosted in collaboration with our partner ABN AMRO, we will explore real-world experiences and strategies for successfully aligning with the CSRD requirements and stakeholder engagement.
Below you can find some of the questions that were addressed during the Q&A:
- It seems that the CSRD journey involves not only a reporting activity but also a relational/stakeholder/change management. What advice would you provide at company level but also at the level of the CSRD project manager to run those 2 processes smoothly?
- What would you both say are the key overlaps/differences between conducting an impact versus double materiality assessment? What are common pitfalls you’ve seen thus far?
- What advice would you give to face opposition or resistance to the CSRD and CSR journey among stakeholders and workers?
- Should all metrics of ESRS be reported or how do we choose what to report?
- How and when does this regulation apply to UK businesses?
- Would you recommend conducting the initial step of DMA starting with E1, S1 and G1 as a foundation for learning the process of DMA in areas most likely to be material for the company and value chain? This was recommended to me, and I will start DMA this way. Small bank (just for context).
- This report starts from DMA (Impact and Financial Materiality) and leads from there to data points and DRs and finally to a report. What sort of tools do you use to ease the work? How do we prepare the reports and processes so that it’s easy for auditors to audit? So, do you recommend any key rules and regulations behind making the process easier and well organized?
- What precautions should be taken in the sustainability sector concerning CSRD reporting (the disclosure of information within the company narratives) in the light of the Green Claims proposal, and consumer protection issues?
- Could you provide your view on how to handle the EU Taxonomy topic?
- Any special advice for the food industry?
- Banks have more different questionnaires to send out than other companies. How do you see the value chain for banks?
