What's on the sustainability horizon?

External pressures are reshaping the sustainability landscape, changing the expectations placed on organisations to operate in a more sustainable way.  But finance leaders who adapt early are already benefitting from the increased innovation and value that sustainable practices create within their organisation.

Increasing levels of regulation

The CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) is an EU directive which was implemented in 2023, but due to its graduated approach will only begin to affect many organisations as we head into 2025 and beyond. 

The CSRD includes double materiality as a mandatory part of compliance – meaning organisations will need to assess the most material risks to their organisation before compiling their reporting data.  

Are you confident in your knowledge of the CSRD to enable organisational compliance?

We offer comprehensive CSRD workshops to furnish you with the knowledge and confidence to comply with the upcoming regulations.

Increasing investor pressure 

83% of investors incorporate sustainability information in their investment decisions – and considering that double materiality assessments will be more readily available as the regulations come into force, it’s likely that this number will only increase.  

Many investors now also practice ethical investing and will only invest in organisations which demonstrably operate ethically and sustainably.  

Only 14% of companies say they know how they will manage their CSRD reporting – are you one of them? If not, get in touch to see how we can support you in your compliance journey.

Shifting customer perceptions

No matter your audience, be that B2C or B2B, one thing is clear: sustainability is important to your customers. The invent of accreditations such as B Corp status allow you to prove a particular level of ethical standard and customers will actively look for this when selecting who to purchase from. 

For B2B organisations, your client companies are increasingly looking for more sustainable partners to work with. In ensuring your compliance with the regulations and providing excellent reporting, you’ll differentiate your business from other competitors and demonstrate your commitment to sustainability.
