Study Notes
- The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) came into effect on January 5, 2023, and must be implemented into national law within 18 months in all EU member states.
- The reporting obligation under the CSRD applies to all large companies and all listed companies, except for micro-enterprises.
- Large companies are defined as those meeting at least two of the following criteria: balance sheet total of at least €20 million, net turnover of at least €40 million, or an average of at least 250 employees during the financial year.
- Micro-enterprises are defined as those meeting at least two of the following criteria: balance sheet total of no more than €350,000, net turnover of no more than €700,000, or an average of no more than 10 employees during the financial year.
- Companies must disclose sustainability information using the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), which will be sector-specific and developed by the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG).
- The ESRS will be adopted by the end of June 2023, with the possibility of revisions.
- The DNK (German Sustainability Code) will be adjusted to comply with the CSRD and ESRS, with the aim of allowing all companies to use it regardless of whether they report voluntarily or are required to do so.
- The DNK will continue to be modular and will include basic information based on an ESRS-KMU standard, which will cover requirements for small and medium-sized companies.
- Optional additional content can be selected to create a sustainability report in line with the CSRD and EU Taxonomy, including reporting on the Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG).
- The DNK team is working with the German government and the Federal Office for Economic Affairs and Export Control (BAFA) to develop technical solutions to simplify reporting using the DNK database.
