Sustainability reporting

Sustainability reporting

Requirements for sustainability reporting and ESG-related transparency are growing rapidly, driven by developments in the regulatory landscape, financial markets, and the business world. Companies today face rising expectations from customers, investors, banks, authorities, and other stakeholders regarding how sustainability-related risks, goals, processes, and outcomes are communicated and monitored.

At the same time, sustainability reporting is becoming an increasingly important part of corporate governance, serving many companies both as a tool for transparency and as support for strategic decision-making, risk management, and long-term development.

We help companies develop sustainability reporting that is relevant, well-structured, and tailored to their operations, ambition level, and regulatory requirements. Our work can cover both mandatory and voluntary reporting, providing support throughout the entire process, from analysis and data collection to the development of reports, disclosures, and ESG-related KPIs.

Below are examples of areas where we offer support in sustainability reporting and ESG-related disclosures.

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is the EU's directive on sustainability reporting. It replaces the earlier Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD) and introduces expanded requirements for how companies identify, manage, and report on sustainability-related matters.

The CSRD introduces the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), which specify the disclosures companies must provide and how sustainability information should be structured and presented. The ESRS covers disclosure requirements across environmental, social, and governance-related areas and is built on the principle of double materiality. 

We offer support in reporting under the EU Taxonomy Regulation, from interpretation and analysis to calculations, documentation, and reporting. The taxonomy is a key tool in the EU's efforts to direct capital toward more sustainable investments and contribute to the transition to a climate-neutral economy.

Many companies are still subject to sustainability disclosure requirements under the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (ÅRL, Chapter 6). These requirements apply to both large companies and companies listed on a regulated market, requiring businesses to disclose information on sustainability-related issues, risks, and practices in areas such as the environment, social conditions, personnel, human rights, and anti-corruption.

Voluntary reporting can serve both as a strategic governance tool and as preparation for future regulatory requirements. At the same time, it gives companies the opportunity to communicate their sustainability work more clearly and strengthen their position in the market.
