Sustainability Reporting Services

Fiscal Accounts provide sustainability reporting services in Belfast and help ensure that businesses accurately measure, disclose, and communicate their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impacts. Our work is grounded in established financial expertise and now extends to new domains as sustainability becomes integral to business strategy and regulatory compliance.

How we carry out sustainability reporting

Understanding the business and its Environment

We gain a deep understanding of your organisation’s operations, industry context, and sustainability risks and opportunities. This knowledge helps us identify what sustainability issues are material to the business and its stakeholders

Identifying Reporting Frameworks and Material Topics

We select the most appropriate reporting frameworks for your business. These include the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), or IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards. These are all based on regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations. We then conduct materiality assessments, often using a “double materiality” approach, to determine which ESG topics are most relevant for disclosure.

Data Collection and Analysis

We establish robust processes for gathering quantitative and qualitative data on ESG metrics, such as greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, diversity, and community impact. This ensures data accuracy, completeness, and reliability, often leveraging technology and digital tools to streamline collection and analysis

Integration with Financial Reporting

Sustainability data is aligned with financial disclosures which provides for a holistic view of business performance. Accountants translate ESG data into financial terms, assess climate-related risks, and integrate these insights into financial planning and risk management

Reporting and Assurance

We prepare sustainability reports for internal and external stakeholders, ensuring compliance with chosen frameworks. Also, we provide assurance services, verifying the credibility of reported information and guarding against greenwashing

Continuous Improvement

We regularly review and update sustainability disclosures, respond to new regulations, and help businesses set and track progress toward sustainability goals.
