A warm welcome to David Frydlinger, Partner, Cirio Law Firm joining CFO Outlook 2024. On April 25th you who join the summit in Stockholm will learn what CSRD – Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directives – mean to you working in finance.
The new sustainability directives enforces a wide set of insights needed throughout any larger company. No longer is it enough to focus on the few aspects lowering carbon emissions. Greenwashing should be made much harder to get away with.
In simple terms – this session and the round table discussions David will host – will be a very practical guide to what it take and will take from you working in finance to fulfill your corporate sustainability goals and requirements. And ultimately help create the world we all want to live in.
A comprehensive guide to CSRD reporting possibilities and demands
The CSRD – Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directives – is about to take corporate sustainability to a new level, imposing substantially higher demands on transparency about both companies own business operations as well as their supply chains regarding environmental and social impacts and risks. Financial, environmental and social sustainability must be integrated. For many organizations, this means that the sustainability function is moved to the finance department, becoming a CFO responsibility.
At the same time, the new requirements risk ending up in an endless hunt for often poor data, where companies may get lost in the details and fail to find the overview needed to implement real transformation in the business.
What does this mean for You?
- How can the developing EU legislation help companies transform into more sustainable business without getting lost in the details?
- What does it mean to integrate financial, environmental and social sustainability?
- How must companies rethink their financial and other processes to adapt to the new reporting requirements?
- What are the core elements to focus on when transforming into a sustainable business?
