CSRD 

The Working Group CSRD/ESRS is currently working on the combination/linking of int. reporting standards, such as ESRS/CSRD, NFI 2013/34, Taxonomy, CSDDD and ECG.


General Objectives 2023

      • In December 2023, be able to state: Matrix 5.0 is 10-15% compliant with CSRD/ESRS, and the following … is still missing.
      • Derived from & aligned with the MDT’s approach: Plan for Matrix 5.1/6.0 - depending on strategic decision of FMC

Framework 2023

  • Focus on Int. level / EU, instead of national implementation or third countries
  • Basis Matrix 5.0
  • Focus CSRD/ESRS, collaborate with A-Team & B-Team to combine ECG 5.0 & Taxonomy, CSDDD 
  • Work in Progress: all ESRS-documents are still drafts
  • VSME/LSME standards cannot be scheduled until drafts are available


Update 11/2023

Working on Scenarios & Framework to support the strategic decision by FMC.


Decision by MDT (Oct 2023)
