Introduction

In the realm of corporate sustainability reporting, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) mandates a comprehensive understanding of double materiality. Businesses no longer need to feel overwhelmed by the prospect of conducting a double materiality assessment. By utilizing existing documents and data, companies can identify critical impacts, risks, and opportunities tailored to their unique circumstances, setting a strategic pathway for CSRD reporting.

Identify Your Starting Points

Utilizing Existing Resources

Embark on your double materiality analysis by tapping into the wealth of information contained within company documents, competitor insights, and relevant sector-specific research. This initial sweep provides a baseline for understanding the broader landscape of potential sustainability issues and opportunities.
