The most important facts in brief:

• CSRD Directive: From 2024, the new EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) will apply to many companies.
• From NFRD to CSRD: The CSRD replaces the Non-Financial Reporting Directive of 2014, which regulated sustainability reporting.
• Inside-Out Reporting: Companies must be transparent about their impact on the climate and environment.
• More transparency: The aim of the CSRD is to disclose the company's sustainability efforts.
• Focus on mobility: Business travel and mobility solutions offer great potential for CO2 reductions.

Introduction to the CSRD Directive and its significance

From 2024, many companies will be obliged to publish detailed reports on their sustainability efforts, in particular their CO2 emissions, as part of the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive). This also applies to business travel, which often accounts for a significant proportion of emissions. For companies that travel a lot, it is crucial to record and analyse this data.

The CSRD replaces the previous Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD), which has regulated reporting on non-financial indicators since 2014. While the NFRD only required certain large companies to report on sustainability, the new directive covers significantly more companies, including many SMEs.

Sustainability reporting: what is changing

One significant difference to the old directive is the focus of the report. The CSRD emphasises so-called inside-out reporting. This means that not only the impact of climate change on the company is assessed, but also how the company itself contributes to environmental pollution. For companies with a high volume of business travel, this results in the need to record and optimise their carbon footprint in detail.

Our account management services help you to compile accurate CO2 reports on your business trips and develop suitable measures to reduce them.

Focus on mobility and business travel

There is an urgent need for action in the transport sector in particular. Business travel, especially air travel, contributes significantly to CO2 emissions in many companies. The new regulations of the CSRD Directive are forcing companies to take a closer look at this area. This is where our account management comes into play: We offer comprehensive support in analysing the CO2 emissions of your business trips and help you to make data-based decisions.

With our service, you can record all relevant data on air travel and other forms of mobility and prepare them in reports. This data is essential for optimising your carbon footprint and thus meeting the requirements of the CSRD.

More climate-friendly business trips through targeted management

The challenge is not only to analyse the status quo, but also to find sustainable solutions. Companies can achieve a great deal here by optimising their travel processes. With the clever use of technologies and analysis tools, we offer you the opportunity to realise more climate-friendly business trips. Our account management supports you in the selection of more environmentally friendly travel options and in the use of bonus programmes aimed at sustainability.

A mobility budget that favours climate-friendly alternatives such as rail travel or electromobility could play a decisive role in reducing the carbon footprint.
