This workshop is designed for CFOs and senior financial executives who are looking to navigate the complexities of increasingly prevalent sustainability requirements. In particular, the California Climate-related Financial Risk Act, applicable to all companies (public or private) doing business in California having total annual revenues in excess of $500 million, and the Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act, applicable to companies with total annual revenues in excess of $1 billion. Both regulations have initial reporting requirements beginning January 1, 2026. The EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) also mandates disclosures in 2026 for companies meeting two of the following three conditions: €50+ million in net turnover, €25+ million in assets, and/or 250+ employees.
Participants will learn how to leverage the SASB (Sustainability Accounting Standards Board) industry-specific standards to identify key environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks and opportunities relevant to your company. The session will also provide practical insights into data collection, tailored reporting disclosures, and strategies to drive value and enhance corporate reputation. Through interactive discussions and case examples, attendees will gain the tools needed to develop robust ESG strategies that ensure compliance and foster long-term business success.
Learning Objectives
- Gain a comprehensive understanding of the latest sustainability regulations in California and the EU and their implications for businesses.
- Utilize the SASB materiality matrix to identify and prioritize ESG risks and opportunities relevant to their industry.
- Determine the critical data required for effective ESG reporting and compliance and understand best practices for data collection and management.
- Gain an understanding of Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions and corresponding categories of emissions, in order to be able to respond to stakeholder requests for emissions inventories and the setting of science-based targets.
- Formulate strategies that not only ensure compliance but also drive business value and enhance the company’s reputation through effective ESG practices.
