In the wake of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), organisations are tasked with enhancing their ESG data management and reporting frameworks. This presentation will guide data leaders through the complexities of CSRD compliance, focusing on the pivotal role of effective ESG data governance. We will explore the three core challenges:

1. Double Materiality Assessments: Evaluating both financial and impact materiality to align with regulatory expectations.

2. Comprehensive ESG Data Collection: Sourcing data across the entire business ecosystem to ensure comprehensive reporting.

3. External Assurance: Ensuring third-party certification of ESG reports, highlighting the importance of data accuracy and governance.

Attendees will gain practical insights into implementing a logical data management approach that addresses these challenges, while also aligning ESG data practices with broader enterprise data strategies.
