  • What is an ESG report and why is it important for businesses?

An ESG report is a document that systematically reflects a company’s environmental, social and governance indicators. It helps businesses be transparent to investors, partners and regulators, and confirms their commitment to sustainable development.

  • What are the key components of an ESG report?

The report consists of the following sections:

1.    environmental indicators — greenhouse gas emissions, energy efficiency, waste management, etc.

2.    social aspects — working conditions, gender equality, social projects and corporate social responsibility

3.    management indicators — corporate ethics, management structure, anti-corruption policies, best management practices, transparency, risk management, etc.

  • Why should companies assess their status before preparing an ESG report?

This enables them to determine their level of compliance with sustainable development principles, identify gaps, and understand what data and processes need to be improved in order to generate a relevant and accurate report.

  • Why is it important to use international standards (e.g. GRI, ESRS, etc.)?

Standards provide a unified structure that makes reports comparable and understandable for stakeholders and international investors. BDO supports reports in accordance with GRI, SASB, ESRS and other standards to ensure proper quality and compliance with global practices.

  • How do companies collect ESG data for reporting?

The collection process includes verifying, updating and systematising data on environmental, social and governance aspects of their activities. It is important to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the information.

  • Is ESG reporting subject to mandatory audit?

Auditing is not currently mandatory in Ukraine; however, requirements in line with international directives (e.g., the CSRD Directive) are expected to be introduced. Once in place, data verification will become standard practice for large companies. Independent auditing enhances the confidence of investors and stakeholders.
