CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive)

The EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) came into force in 2023. It broadens the universe of companies required to report on sustainability metrics to more than 50,000, covering listed and private companies, SMEs and thousands of overseas firms with business activities in the EU. This page features the latest developments on disclosures under the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), investor reactions, and interoperability with other regimes.
