Webinar: ESG on the CFO’s agenda

Data and reporting in an ESG context

This webinar has been hosted

KPMG and Danish Accounting Network proudly present this webinar on the challenges and opportunities of ESG data and reporting. During the webinar Cristiana Parisi, Associate Professor in Management Control at CBS, and Sandra Ebbesen, Senior Manager at KPMG, will have a topical conversation and share their expertise about data and reporting on ESG.

The first companies are required to report according to the new CSRD regulation for the financial year 2024, which means that data collection, validation and report preparation are currently ongoing. For most companies the work required to comply with this new regulation is not a walk in the park - it requires significant resource allocation and a dedicated focus from most of the organization.

What are some of the challenges that companies face when it comes to ESG data and reporting? What are the potential benefits of this new regulation? And can the ESG data and reporting be used in other ways than just for the purpose of being compliant with the new regulation? These are some of the things that Cristiana and Sandra will touch upon during the webinar.

Key insights that you will get by attending the webinar:

Challenges faced by companies related to ESG data and reporting
Potential benefits of the new regulation
The usage of ESG data and reporting
