Beyond the numbers: building assurance-ready narrative disclosures for regulatory reporting

ERM CVS is delighted to invite you to our Expert Spotlight Series for an informal session exploring the evolving landscape of Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requirements and assurance expectations.

As sustainability reporting requirements evolve, organizations must ensure that their narrative disclosures are as robust, evidence-based, and assurance-ready as their quantitative data. Join Teradata's Sustainability Director and our ERM CVS assurance experts for a practical discussion on how to strengthen reporting credibility and prepare for emerging assurance expectations under CSRD.

We invite you to join this interactive session, where you will have the opportunity to ask our in-house experts your questions and gain practical insight into what to do next.

We’ll be covering some key topics including:

Why narrative disclosures are under increasing scrutiny and how regulations such as CSRD are raising expectations for transparency, consistency, and evidence-based reporting.
What whole-report assurance means in practice, including how assurance requirements are evolving and what organizations should be doing today to prepare for future expectations.
How to build assurance readiness across your organization by implementing the right governance structures, controls, processes, and ownership models to support reliable narrative reporting.
How leading organizations are putting this into practice, with real-world insights from Teradata on strengthening disclosure processes and preparing for assurance.
How to turn compliance into business value by using credible, trusted storytelling to enhance stakeholder confidence, reduce reporting risk, and strengthen market positioning.
Answers to your most pressing challenges during a live Q&A session with our panel of sustainability, reporting, and assurance experts.
