The future of financial reporting and ESG expert training – 24 October 2024
We are pleased to share the link to the online event on ‘The future of financial reporting’ on 24 October 2024.
EFFAS, the European Federation of Financial Analysts Societies, recently announced its agreement with EFRAG on the accreditation of its Certified ESG Analyst (CESGA) training programme as an implementation guideline for the recently developed European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).
Together with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the mandatory introduction of the sustainability reporting, many questions arise. We are therefore pleased to invite you to our keynote speeches and reception where we will give you an insight in why and how we need to go beyond financial reporting and why it is important to train investment professionals with ESG expert training at a European level. We will also explain in more detail how the ESRS will be integrated into our CESGA training programme, being accredited by EFRAG, the ESG standard setter for the European Commission.
