We support in deriving measures for the integration of ESG criteria and sustainable finance practices into reporting as well as examining the impact of ESG and sustainable finance requirements on external reporting and Finrep reporting.

Additionally, we offer testing and quality assurance of the ESG and sustainable financial reporting implementation, focusing on completeness, consistency, timeliness, stability, plausibility and accuracy.
