EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) Compliance

ESG and Third-Party Risk Management

The EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is a law that will require companies to report on environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters, including those that arise from their supply chains, as part of their regular company disclosures. This new reporting was developed to improve consistency in reporting against sustainability goals.

The reporting requirements are called European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and generally align with traditional environmental, social and governance (ESG) categories, including:

  • Environment: climate change; pollution; water and marine resources; biodiversity and ecosystems; and resource use and the circular economy
  • Social: own workforce; workers in the value chain; affected communities; and consumers and end users
  • Governance: governance, risk management and internal control; and business conduct

The Prevalent Third-Party Risk Management Platform can help you get ahead of sustainability reporting requirements with capabilities to assess third parties against a number of ESG topics, and validate the findings with continuous external monitoring into vendor practices.

Relevant Requirements

  • Meet CSRD reporting requirements with automated assessments and templates

  • Minimize business disruptions with continuous visibility into each vendor’s ESG reputation and track record

  • Gain a clear picture of third-party ESG practices – before and after signing supplier contracts

  • Reduce reporting complexity by centrally managing ESG assessments with all other risk assessments
