Sustainability audit

Audit control is an integral part of supervisory procedures at any company.

Audits are necessary for gaining the trust of clients and partners as well as for managing the company. In this sustainability-oriented era, various stakeholders expect that non-financial information about businesses are collected, presented and validated in the same way as financial information.

Who is required to undergo an audit?

The requirement of preparation and public disclosure of sustainability report applies to all large companies, corporate groups and companies listed on regulated markets (except for publicly listed micro-enterprises). Data must be presented in conformity with the mandatory EU sustainability reporting standards and audited by an independent auditor. The sustainability report is presented as a separate part of the management report within the company’s annual report.

Sustainability report can be prepared and disclosed also by companies not required to do so.

Grant Thornton Baltic has an audit group consisting of experts for reviewing sustainability reports. We support you by reviewing the key indicators, data collection process and documentation to ensure that the data set is sufficient for an audit.

We also provide pre-audit consultation for companies not required to prepare reporting but want to get a heads up for when they do become subject to audit obligations.
