Sustainability Reporting

Sustainability reporting continues to develop at a fast pace and create challenges for businesses trying to design coherent and consistent reporting that meets jurisdictional requirements, as well as investors’ and other stakeholders’ expectations. Proposed requirements for sustainability reporting in the EU and UK are ambitious and will have a significant impact on the scope, volume, and granularity of information companies will need to collect and disclose. These requirements are expected to be adopted in UK and EU soon and companies must be prepared to report in line with these changes.

The UN Global Compact Network UK hosted Sustainability Reporting Week, in partnership with ERM, to dive into the specifics of the new reporting regulations and European Green Deal finance package to find how these will impact businesses. Guest speakers included representatives from leading companies implementing these changes in their disclosures and experts shaping the landscape of sustainability reporting.
