The Omnibus I proposal, released earlier this year as part of the EU Commission's work programme for 2025, has together with the simultaneously published Clean Industrial Deal, shifted the focus for sustainable development. Sustainability reporting is no longer to be seen as a stand-alone, extensive reporting burden, but instead as a strategic tool, adapted to fit into different types of organizations. Sustainability data will be crucial to efficiently steer capital in the direction needed for the transition to take place, and there will hence be demands from banks, investors, owners and other stakeholders going forward.
During the summer, a new set of ESRS standards, adapted to fit the simplifications proposed in Omnibus I, was published by EFRAG, together with a 60-day public consultation survey. The EU Commission has also officially adopted the voluntary VSME-standard issued by EFRAG as a recommendation for companies not under the scope of CSRD/ESRS.
In this 30-minute session, you will get an overview of the main changes in the proposals, the effects on other regulations and how these can be used to strategically position your company for future requirements.
During the webinar, you will learn more about:
- Omnibus I and its consequences for reporting
- Why the Clean Industrial Deal could be a game-changer for sustainability in Europe
- The revised ESRS-standards
