This is the first-ever free advanced training on the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).

What is the scope of the CSRD?

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) will be gradually introduced to give companies sufficient time to adapt. The introduction will take place in several phases:

2024: As of January 1, 2024, large companies already subject to the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD) must meet the new requirements of the CSRD. This applies above all to large capital market-oriented companies with more than 500 employees.

2025: From 1 January 2025, other large companies that are not subject to the NFRD, but must meet the criteria of the CSRD (more than 250 employees, more than 50 million euros in sales, more than 25 million euros total assets) that meet new reporting requirements.

2028: From 1 January 2028, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) listed on the stock exchange, as well as small and non-complex credit institutions and captive insurance companies, must meet and report the CSRD requirements.

2028: As of 1 January 2028, non-European companies that generate net sales of more than 150 million euros in the EU and have at least one subsidiary or branch in the EU must also meet the CSRD requirements.
