ESG is a strategic choice that goes hand in hand with profitability

The Omnibus package recently proposed by the European Commission aims to significantly reduce the group of companies subject to mandatory reporting under the CSRD: 80% of companies subject to CSRD under current legislation will no longer be so with this adjustment. The reporting obligation will also be significantly reduced. For example, the sector-specific standards will be removed entirely, the number of mandatory data points will be much smaller, and the reporting deadline will often be moved backwards.
 

This development logically generates many reactions, for instance, from companies already well underway, which may now wonder if this has been mainly in vain.
 

If we zoom out from this European legislation to its ultimate goal: making the transition to a sustainable economy, this revolves around how each company contributes to the Paris Climate Agreement.
 

At Boer & Croon, we are convinced that making this contribution by integrating ESG into your business operations goes hand in hand with profitability. It is a natural choice that also ensures that you do not lose relevance as a company in the long term.
 

The interview with Paul Broersen, former (multiple) CEO and partner in business at Boer & Croon, reveals that it takes some courage to lead the way, but that if you take ESG seriously and think in terms of opportunities rather than ‘difficult’ and ‘complex’, it can significantly improve your profitability and value development.
