Corporate sustainability reporting has gained significant importance in recent years as organisations strive to demonstrate their commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices. In Europe, the introduction of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) aims to enhance the consistency and quality of sustainability reporting among companies in European Union (EU) member states.
