How can business prepare for the upcoming Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)? On Tuesday, 25 March, AmCham EU explored this question, hearing from policymakers and industry insiders during a panel discussion. The attention was on how both groups can work together to make EU sustainability reporting work. Moving to the fireside chat, attendees heard from Jean-Paul Servais, Chairman, Financial Services and Markets Authority, on how consistency can be ensured between the CSRD and other parts of the sustainable finance agenda.  

During the panel, members heard from Alexander Bassen, Member, European Financial Reporting Advisory Group and Chair, Capital Markets and Management, School of Business, Economics and Social Sciences, University of Hamburg; Abrial Gilbert d'Halluin, Policy Adviser to Pascal Durand, MEP (FR, S&D); Sue Lloyd, Vice-Chair, International Sustainability Standards Board (online) and Rebekah Smith, Workforce and ESG Executive, Europe Government and Regulatory Affairs, IBM. The panel was moderated by Ilan Jacobs (Citi), Vice-Chair, Sustainable Finance Task Force, AmCham EU. Afterwards, we had a fireside chat with Jean-Paul Servais, Chairman, Financial Services and Markets Authority, which was moderated by David Henry Doyle (S&P Global), Chair, Sustainable Finance Task Force, AmCham EU.
