CSDR

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requires companies to report on the impact of corporate activities on the environment and society, and requires the audit (assurance) of reported information. CSRD provides an opportunity for internal auditors to support their organizations by identifying risks, putting effective controls in place, and understanding the impact on your corporate reporting and sustainability strategies.
