Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD)

  • This directive emphasizes corporate responsibility, particularly that of boards and executives, to ensure due diligence systems are in place for all sustainability data.
  • It presents challenges, particularly in Asian supply chains, where data verification and transparency can be more difficult to ensure. The directive places responsibility on companies to ensure that suppliers meet sustainability standards and that the data they provide is reliable.
