In relation to the European Corporate Social Responsibility and Corporate Social Due Diligence Directives and the consequent regulatory provisions adopted at national level, Studio Kreston TDL has created a specific integrated team to assist companies in their transition towards sustainability through the integration of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) profiles into their business strategy.

Planning and monitoring the company’s path towards a sustainable and inclusive economic and financial system is an issue of paramount importance for successful companies, both in relation to market requirements – considering that stakeholders are increasingly critical of unethical and opaque business practices – and in order to gain access to the credit and investment system from lenders and investors, as well as institutions, in financing sustainable activities.

With this in mind and consistent with our values, we assist our Clients in identifying opportunities to improve the company’s positioning on sustainability issues through the following services:

• Creation and implementation of sustainability models;
• Drafting corporate policies and procedures, codes of ethics and contracts that pursue sustainable objectives;
• Management of labour, tax and corporate finance aspects;
• Due diligence activities aimed at developing sustainable value chains;
• Support in acquiring the status of Benefit Corporation and assistance in statutory fulfilments (adaptation of company by-laws, identification of impact Manager – internal or external -, definition of action plan and KPIs);
• Intervention on corporate governance and adoption of appropriate decision-making models;
• Assistance on the legal and regulatory aspects of sustainable finance (SFDR and Taxonomy);
• Assistance and support in the preparation of ESG report, non-financial statement, social report, impact report on the pursuit of the common benefit.
