Sustainability Disclosure & Reporting Advisory Program
Promoting Transparent Sustainability Reporting According to CSRD and ESRS
In an era where sustainability has transformed from a voluntary to a mandatory matter, the introduction of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) marks a critical milestone. Due to their direct or indirect reporting obligations, both SMEs and larger organizations are facing the directive’s complexities leading to the dual challenge of understanding new regulatory landscapes and integrating sustainable practices into their business models.
Designed to effectively overcome these challenges, our Sustainability Disclosure & Reporting Advisory Program supports you in preparing for and meeting reporting obligations with a step-by-step approach that aligns with your organization’s individual needs and current status quo. Start this journey with us to leverage transparent reporting and sharing of your sustainability data as new business enablers and central aspects of your corporate strategy.
As expected, the European Commission presented its first omnibus package to simplify sustainability reporting requirements on February 26, 2025. With the publication of this draft, concrete proposals for simplifying sustainability reporting are now available. Companies that have previously been subject to existing reporting requirements are particularly affected. As the proposals are still in the draft stage, they are not yet binding - the full legislative process must first be completed before they can come into force.

1. Which companies are affected by the CSRD and when?
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is expected to affect almost 50,000 companies. The CSRD applies to all:
- Large companies already subject to the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD) (public interest entities with more than 500 employees) will need to report in 2025 for fiscal year 2024.
- Large companies not previously subject to the NFRD (meeting at least two of the following three criteria: total assets of ≥ €25 million, a net turnover of ≥ €50 million and/or ≥ 250 employees) will need to report in 2026 for 2025 data.
- Listed SMEs: Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that are listed on EU regulated markets (except for micro-enterprises) will also be required to report in 2027 for fiscal year 2026, although they will be subject to less extensive reporting requirements compared to larger companies.
- Non-EU Companies: Non-EU companies generating a net turnover of €150 million in the EU and that have at least one subsidiary or branch in the EU with a revenue of €40 million will need to report in 2029 for 2028 data.
