CSRD Double Materiality

The EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) ushers in a new era for sustainability reporting.

Companies must now report under the double materiality principle. They must also report across far wider-ranging Environmental, Social and Governance topics. 

Core to a successful CSRD programme is quantitative sustainability and impact data, supported by rigorous science and transparency, and fully aligned to EFRAG guidance. 

When it comes to the CSRD, data can accelerate analysis, de-risk decisions and enrich stakeholder engagement.

TNFD and PBAF

Nature and biodiversity loss poses major business risks for corporates and financial institutions.

To align with these frameworks, companies and investors require scalable yet granular insights that offer a full breakdown of the contributing impact drivers.

When it comes to the TNFD and PBAF, you need transparent, comparable and science-backed data that supports you at every step of the process: locate, evaluate, assess and prepare.

SFDR, EU Taxonomy and MiFID II

The Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) is a landmark EU legislation designed to improve transparency for investors and increase capital flows towards more sustainable products.

Financial markets participants must now disclose how they integrate sustainability at entity and product levels.

Key to successful SFDR compliance is a statement of Principal Adverse Impacts (PAIs) – a collection of mandatory and voluntary indicators showing adverse effects on sustainability factors.

Complementing the SFDR are the EU Taxonomy and MiFID II – which provide a classification of sustainable corporate activities and require detailed collection of investors’ preferences, respectively.
