Improving CSRD implementation: Insights and assurance perspectives on Double Materiality

About this webinar

Compliance with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is more than a regulatory requirement; it's a strategic opportunity for companies to showcase their commitment to sustainability, attract investors and excel in a responsible business environment. However, achieving compliance involves balancing formal requirements with real-world business constraints like time and resources.

While regulations, ESRS standard and EFRAG guidance provide a framework, interpretation and practical implementation are still evolving. Companies face challenges in defining the scope of their analysis, establishing internal project teams and governance structures as well as ensuring assessments are conducted and documented in an auditable manner. 

Watch our on demand webinar for a review of how we have supported clients through double materiality assessments (DMA) and CSRD reporting over the past year. Our experts will highlight what assurance providers are looking for, covering:
