BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), many large organisations will be required to start adopting European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRSs). As companies prepare for these new requirements, it is important that they understand the detailed disclosures and the related metrics that must be reported on by first undertaking a double materiality assessment (DMA). This CPE will focus on the main steps behind a DMA and give some practical next steps.

SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION

This session will focus on the following topics:

• Overview of the double materiality concept as per the ESRSs

• Process for understanding a double materiality assessment

• Pitfalls and practical next steps

Why is the session of relevance to our members?

 As organisations respond to various sustainability pressures, accountants and non-accountants alike need to keep up to speed with the changing regulatory environment and learn how to gather, understand, and articulate performance on a range of material sustainability matters. The DMA not only determines the scope of the organisation’s sustainability reporting but also enables an efficient allocation of the resources needed to achieve CSRD compliance and provides indispensable insights for shaping company strategy.

Target Audience

Members of the accountancy profession and sustainability professionals interested in the reporting obligations emanating from the ESRSs and/or who may be involved in the collection, analysis or reporting of such information
