Frankly Speaking – A Podcast on Responsible Business
After a short summer break, the Frankly Speaking podcast is excited to be back. Over this summer, we've reached a significant milestone as the European Commission officially released the long-awaited European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) through a delegated act.
In this episode, we welcome Filip Gregor, member of EFRAG’s Sustainability Reporting Board, researcher, advisor and advocate for corporate sustainability reporting and head of Frank Bold’s Responsible Companies section. We take a closer look at what has changed after last July’s public consultation on the ESRS, what businesses need to know and what to do next.
You’ll hear more about:
The game changing aspects of the ESRSs
The loopholes that the text still presents
How the ESRSs differ from the ISSB standards
EFRAG’s upcoming guidance for businesses
Advice on how companies can prepare to implement the new EU reporting standards
