Legal advise about ESG in commercial contracts
The current requirements for sustainability reporting based on the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) are important and will become of greater importance in the future for many companies - even companies that are not directly encompassed and obligated by the reporting requirements. This is due to the companies directly covered by the reporting requirements having to be able to document the entire value chain up to themselves, and to do so, they will need reporting from suppliers. As a result of the above, it can be crucial for a company to ensure that requirements for the delivery of data for reporting up the value chain are clearly described and delimited, and that it is possible to require the needed reporting down the chain.
We advise on, review and draft all types of commercial contracts and general terms and conditions taking this into account to ensure transparency and predictability for businesses.
