CSRD Solution – Sustainability Reporting and Strategy

Corporate Sustainability across Europe

With the ‘Green Deal’, the EU has launched a set of measures focused on respecting human rights and protecting the environment, with the aim of making sustainable corporate governance the European standard. At the heart of these measures is the creation of transparency by regulating the supply chains and value chains of European companies.

The Corporate Sustainability Directive (CSRD)

The CSRD is a proposed directive by the European Commission aimed at enhancing corporate sustainability reporting standards within the European Union (EU).
‍
The directive aims to address the growing demand for companies to disclose transparent and reliable information regarding their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and is replacing the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD), which has been in force since 2014.

Who is affected?

All companies (including non-capital market-oriented companies) that meet two of the following three criteria:

250 employees
50 million EUR turnover
25 million EUR balance sheet total

As well as, publicly listed SME that meet two of the following three criteria:

10 employees
900,000 EUR turnover
450,000 EUR balance sheet total

This results in a reporting obligation for approx. 50,000 companies in the EU and approx. 15,000 companies in Germany.

Features of our solution

To publish a sustainability statement, companies must first carry out a double materiality assessment in order to understand which Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (IROs) are material.
With osapiens HUB for CSRD, companies can identify and analyse potential and actual Impacts (Impact Materiality) as well as Opportunities and Risks (Financial Materiality) in a quick and easy way. Moreover, the automated materiality evaluation provides immediate insight into whether an IRO is material or not. The process allows organisations to involve and engage stakeholders, establish responsibilities and deadlines, and have a comprehensive overview of the assessment progress.

Double Materiality Assessment

Don’t start from a blank slate

Evaluate financial risks and opportunities, as well as positive and negative Impacts, from an inside-out and outside-in perspective. Draw on a compliantly designed IRO-library to ensure you lay the foundation for a strategy and report that will stand up to scrutiny.
