Why CSRD compliance matters now

~5,000
Companies still in scope after the EU Omnibus, down from around 50,000
€450M
Net turnover threshold, alongside more than 1,000 employees
2027
New scope applies to financial years starting on or after 1 January 2027

A moving target

The Omnibus directive was published in February 2026 and narrowed the scope from around 50,000 companies to around 5,000. If you are still in scope, reporting stays mandatory with limited assurance. The question most teams have now is whether they are in or out, and what to do with the work already done.

Investor expectations

Institutional investors increasingly demand standardized ESG data. CSRD-aligned reporting builds trust and access to capital.

Strategic advantage

Companies that embed sustainability into reporting gain a clearer view of risks and opportunities across their value chain.

Frequently asked questions

Who needs to comply with the CSRD?
The CSRD applies to all large EU companies, listed SMEs, and non-EU companies with significant EU operations (over EUR 150 million in EU revenue). Large companies meeting two of three criteria (250+ employees, EUR 50M+ revenue, EUR 25M+ total assets) fall under the directive. The timeline is phased: companies already subject to NFRD report first (FY 2024), followed by other large companies (FY 2025) and listed SMEs (FY 2026).
What is a Double Materiality Assessment?
A Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) evaluates sustainability topics from two perspectives: impact materiality (how your company affects people and the environment) and financial materiality (how sustainability issues affect your company financially). The DMA determines which ESRS standards and disclosure requirements are material for your report. It involves stakeholder engagement, scoring, and documentation.
How long does CSRD implementation typically take?
A full CSRD implementation, from DMA to assurance-ready report, typically takes 6 to 12 months depending on your starting maturity, data availability, and organizational complexity. A gap analysis alone can be completed in 4 to 6 weeks. Many companies start with a DMA and gap analysis before committing to full implementation.
What ESRS standards does CSRD reporting cover?
The European Sustainability Reporting Standards include two cross-cutting standards (ESRS 1 and ESRS 2, which are mandatory for all), five environmental standards (E1 through E5 covering climate, pollution, water, biodiversity, and resource use), four social standards (S1 through S4 covering own workforce, value chain workers, communities, and consumers), and one governance standard (G1). Your DMA determines which topical standards are material.
Can Dazzle help with EU Taxonomy alignment too?
Yes. EU Taxonomy reporting is part of CSRD requirements. Our consultants help you identify eligible and aligned activities, calculate turnover, CapEx, and OpEx KPIs, and ensure your taxonomy disclosures meet technical screening criteria and DNSH (Do No Significant Harm) requirements.
