As part of the EU Action Plan, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requires companies with significant business in the EU to disclose information according to the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) framework.
These EU rules require large companies and listed companies to publish regular reports on the social and environmental risks they face, and on how their activities impact people and the environment.
CSRD requires companies and investors to analyze both financial risk and impact (double materiality), across own operations, value chains, and portfolios. Building upon established expertise and research in the ESG and sustainability regulations space, our solution gives you a baseline to support data sourcing and double materiality assessments for CSRD on your own operations and across your value chain or portfolio.
Our CSRD solutions include:
- CSRD Aligned Data: Over 680 ESRS-aligned qualitative and quantitative requirements mapped to Sustainalytics’ data across a universe of 25,000+ companies, supporting disclosure readiness, performance tracking, and peer comparison.
- Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) Tool: A research-based framework on sub-industry level to flag likely IRO (Impact, Risks and Opportunities) material issues and provide rationale, so you can justify and explain your choice.
