Pressure is mounting for businesses and organizations of all kinds to report more about their environmental and sustainability efforts -- and accountants are perfectly positioned to help them do so -- provided they expand their services offerings appropriately.
To start, they can help clients understand their ESG reporting obligations, implement the reporting systems they need to be compliant, and then help them stay compliant as the regulatory regimes change (which they're doing at a quick pace). But then accountants also have the opportunity to expand their assurance services, attesting to the accuracy of the ESG reporting businesses are doing.
This special report looks into the current and future state of the ESG opportunity for accountants, and what they'll need to do to make the most of it, from developing new skills to reaching out to new client bases -- so that they don't miss out on one of the biggest opportunities the accounting profession has ever seen.
