Overview: We assist organizations in reporting their ESG performance transparently and credibly in line with international standards and best practices. Our experts guide you in preparing ESG disclosures according to leading frameworks such as the IFRS S1, S2, Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards, Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) industry-specific metrics, Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) questionnaires for climate and water, Integrated Reporting (IR) frameworks, and Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations. We also help organizations adopt emerging disclosure standards – for example, the new IFRS S1 & S2 sustainability reporting standards, which provide a common global baseline and fully incorporate TCFD’s climate risk disclosure guidance. In tandem with reporting, BDO offers independent non-financial assurance services to enhance the credibility of your ESG reports. As an AccountAbility-licensed assurance provider, we conduct third-party verification of sustainability information (e.g. ESG data, carbon emissions, social impact metrics) in line with standards like AA1000 and ISAE 3000. This independent assurance strengthens trust among investors and stakeholders by ensuring ESG disclosures are reliable, accurate and in compliance with reporting frameworks. Additionally, we perform ESG due diligence for mergers, acquisitions, and investments, evaluating ESG risks and opportunities in target companies or supply chain partners, to inform responsible investment decisions.
