What is double materiality?

The CSRD has been in force since 2024 and obliges numerous companies to report on sustainability. The ESRS, the framework of the CSRD, lists over 1,000 possible data points for the report. However, a sustainability aspect of the ESRS is only reportable if the associated impacts, risks or opportunities (IROs) are considered material for your company.

This is precisely what you determine in the double materiality analysis from two perspectives: Inside-out (How does your company impact stakeholders, the environment and society?) and Outside-in (How do sustainability aspects influence your business activities?). The double materiality analysis thus forms the basis for your CSRD compliance and creates meaningful, comparable ESG reports.

Rise to the challenge

Let’s tell it like it is: the double materiality analysis is a real challenge. Even for experienced consultants, determining and weighting all the sustainability aspects can take several weeks. SMEs in particular are often unable to cope with this. What’s more:

Know-how and best practices are (still) lacking, as CSRD is new
It is not yet clear what an audit-proof CSRD report should look like
Additional costs are incurred if external consultants are commissioned due to a lack of inhouse employees’ time
Data collection and reporting distract from what it should actually be about: Leading the company into a sustainable future

With VERSO’s AI-supported dual materiality analysis, you can rise to this challenge!
