Think Beyond Today. Invest in a Sustainable Tomorrow with SAMESG® Reporting
The European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) has released proposed simplified European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), signaling a concerted effort by the European Union to ease the compliance burden for companies while maintaining robust transparency. This move comes as part of broader EU initiatives to streamline environmental legislation and foster a more competitive industrial landscape.
Released on July 24, 2025, these proposed amendments aim to reduce the number of mandatory data points and simplify reporting requirements under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). EFRAG’s proposals are a direct response to feedback from stakeholders, including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), which has advocated for greater alignment and reduced duplication in sustainability disclosures. The objective is to make reporting faster, easier, and more cost-effective for businesses operating within or engaging with the EU market.
Key aspects of the proposed simplification include:
A significant reduction in the number of mandatory data points, allowing companies to focus on the most material information.
Continued efforts to ensure alignment with other major global reporting frameworks, such as the GRI Standards and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards, to minimize reporting redundancies.
Measures designed to facilitate smoother adoption of ESRS, particularly for companies new to comprehensive sustainability reporting.
This initiative underscores the EU’s commitment to balancing its ambitious environmental objectives with the imperative for efficient and business-friendly regulatory frameworks. Companies are encouraged to review the proposed standards and prepare for the anticipated changes, which are expected to be finalized later in 2025. This proactive approach will enable businesses to adapt their compliance and operational strategies effectively, contributing to a more sustainable and competitive European economy.
