ESG services

Although sustainability or ESG reports have been produced by large companies in the past, the methodology has not been consistent. We supported several clients in compiling these reports, but the depth of these reports was more a matter of the transparency of the company and the reports were not comparable. In Hungary, the first ESG law, based on the EU regulatory framework, entered into force on 1st January 2024, and is intended to support government objectives. Certain large companies will be required to report under the Act from 2024, but the precise details, such as certain accounting and risk management obligations, have not yet been published. The importance of sustainability/ESG reporting has been reinforced in recent years by the trend that investors, financial market participants and regulators increasingly expect companies to report on their sustainability and ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) performance and strategy.
