As part of our Advanced Financial Accounting master's course, Sarah Holzenkamp from Treuhand Weser-Ems Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft, gave us exciting insights into the implementation of the EU Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The students learned first-hand about the challenges companies and auditors face when introducing the reporting obligations - from data collection and integration into existing reporting systems to the external audit of the information. The event provided a valuable opportunity for exchange between academia and practice on a highly topical subject area of corporate reporting.
