ESG Reporting and Compliance Consulting Services
Provide a thorough and independently verified accounting of your ESG initiatives
Financial reporting captures only a portion of a company’s value creation potential and organizational risks.
ESG reporting is critical to communicate the urgency your organization places on sustainability and how you quantify and validate your sustainability efforts.
Well-formed ESG reports deliver:
- Integrated reporting that provides a complete picture of your value creation potential and enterprise risk landscape.
- Commitment to driving sustainability and competitive advantage.
- Disclosure of ESG strategy, innovation, capacity, reputation management, commercial risk mitigation and resource efficiency.
- Disclosure of ESG risks, uncertainties, challenges and trends that may affect your financial performance and long-term sustainability.

ESG Maturity Assessment
You can’t build a solid corporate ESG strategy if you don’t know where to start. Benchmark your progress with this short self-guided assessment. We will show you what you’re doing right and where you may need to improve.
What are your challenges?
Lack of relevant data for ESG reporting
With the focus shifting from quantitative to qualitative measures of ESG performance, many organizations are struggling to gather and communicate evidence to reflect their progress. You may not know where to look for this data or best practices to ensure it is consistent and rigorous.
There is no standard structure to validate progress on ESG metrics
Even with the appropriate data, many organizations have yet to establish a reliable process to track and analyze it year-over-year. The growing number of regulatory frameworks, increased stakeholder scrutiny, and increased urgency to act only add to this challenge.
Rapidly evolving stakeholder/regulator expectations
Ad-hoc and qualitative reporting is no longer acceptable for regulators and stakeholder groups. Most now want to see independently verified qualitative evidence of your ESG disclosures and progress — and standards vary across reporting frameworks.
Resourcing constraints
ESG expectations are evolving quickly, and few organizations have a dedicated team to manage data collection, verification, and reporting. You may be struggling to balance the time and cost constraints of building internal capacity and expectations to meet regulatory/stakeholder deadlines.
