The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) - Keep Up with the Latest Requirements

Introduction

Presented by expert speaker Dr Alexandra von Westernhagan, this virtual classroom session will examine the European Commission’s proposal for a Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), which will substantially widen the scope of those who must report on non-financial issues.

Consideration will be given to the background to the CSRD, including the EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive 2014 (2014/95/EU), as well as the impact of the EU Taxonomy Regulation on non-financial reporting.

This session is aimed at those with prior knowledge of the topic and will provide you with a comprehensive guide to the CSRD including the latest requirements.

For those with no prior knowledge who would like an introductory session on non-financial reporting, please see Alexandra’s session ESG - An Introduction to Non-Financial Sustainable Reporting
