REPORTING / SUSTAINABILITY

A strategic communications tool that presents your ESG performance against internationally recognised standards.

More than a report.
Sustainability is no longer simply a statement of corporate intent. It is a dimension of performance that directly affects access to capital, supply-chain relationships and regulatory compliance. Sustainability reporting is mandatory for companies within the scope of TSRS. Investors, customers and regulators are asking the same fundamental question: will this business remain resilient tomorrow?
Over the past ten years, Finar has produced more than 300 sustainability and integrated reports. For us, a sustainability report goes well beyond a green cover and emissions charts. It is a strategic communications tool that documents your ESG performance against internationally recognised standards.
01 / THE FINAR APPROACH
What we do differently
KPI gap analysis
We compare the performance indicators disclosed by peers and competitors to identify ESG KPIs that are missing from, or could be strengthened in, your reporting. We then propose a measurable set of indicators tailored to your company.
Double materiality assessment
We use a clear materiality matrix to establish which sustainability topics matter most to both your business and its stakeholders.
Trend analysis and interpretation
We compare your sustainability data across reporting periods, identify meaningful trends and explain what they reveal. We do more than report the figures: we show where the business is heading.
Balanced, credible reporting
A sustainability report should address areas for improvement and the actions committed to them, as well as achievements. We discuss this principle openly at the start of every engagement and work with clients to manage greenwashing risk.
Data visualisation
We turn complex sustainability metrics into clear, accessible infographics, making the data easier to understand and more meaningful to its audiences.
02 / STANDARDS AND FRAMEWORKS
The right framework.

We use a single framework or a combination of standards, depending on the client’s size, sector and audiences.

05 / FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Clear answers
to your questions.
Can the process really be completed in three to four months?
For a standard sustainability report, yes. The timetable depends significantly on data readiness on the client’s side. We begin with a short readiness review and plan the engagement accordingly.
When does your team become involved?
From the outset, and throughout the engagement. We hold weekly working sessions, particularly during double materiality, gap analysis, reporting strategy and content development. Our involvement continues beyond handing over a file.
Can I commission design services only?
Yes. However, our experience shows that dividing content and design between separate teams can affect consistency and quality. An integrated approach is much more effective.
How do you support data collection?
We establish a data collection system that makes clear where each data point will come from, who is responsible and which format to use. This also helps the following year’s reporting process run much more efficiently.
Do you provide a complete, end-to-end report?
Yes. We guide you throughout the process. With your responses to our questions, we can develop a report that meets international standards and serves as a benchmark for quality.
