This week we want to provide an updated answer to a question we frequently get: is it worth it to get external assurance for ESG data\/reports? In short, yes. It is worth it.<\/p>

Why? Here are 5 of our strongest reasons:<\/p>

  1. Credibility and Trust\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/strong>External assurance ensures an unbiased review. When stakeholders see that a company\u2019s sustainability data has been independently verified, it can boost their confidence in the information presented. As companies increasingly report ESG performance, the credibility and reliability of this data come into sharp focus.<\/li><\/ol>

Assurance providers often offer insights and recommendations on best practices and areas for enhancement.<\/li><\/ol>

            \u00a0<\/p>

            Despite all of this, external assurance is still not always done. According to our ESG Development in the Public Equity Market 2023 report<\/a>, in Mexico only slightly more than half the companies get this external check. In a recent report<\/a>, KPMG mentioned that while 100% of companies they surveyed across the globe anticipate being required to provide ESG disclosures under at least one, and often multiple, sustainability reporting standards over the next 1-2 years, less than 30% of them are ready for assurance requirements. We would bet that we will see an uptick in external assurance of sustainability reporting in the future.<\/p>

            I hope you found this interesting. As usual, if there is anything we can help you with, or if there is an ESG topic you would like to know more about, please let us know.<\/p>

                      A pesar de todo esto, la verificaci\u00f3n externa todav\u00eda no se realiza siempre. Seg\u00fan nuestro reporte ESG Development in the Public Equity Market 2023<\/a>, en M\u00e9xico solo un poco m\u00e1s de la mitad de las empresas buscan esta verificaci\u00f3n externa. En un reporte<\/a> reciente, KPMG mencion\u00f3 que, aunque el 100% de las empresas que encuestaron en todo el mundo anticipan que se les exigir\u00e1 proporcionar divulgaciones ESG bajo al menos uno, y a menudo varios, est\u00e1ndares de sostenibilidad en los pr\u00f3ximos 1-2 a\u00f1os, menos del 30% de ellas est\u00e1n preparadas para los requisitos de verificaci\u00f3n. Apostar\u00edamos que veremos un aumento en la verificaci\u00f3n externa de los datos de sostenibilidad en el futuro.<\/p>

                      Espero que esto te haya parecido interesante. Como siempre, si hay algo en lo que pudi\u00e9ramos ayudar, o si hay un tema de ESG del cual quisieras saber m\u00e1s, por favor h\u00e1znoslo saber.<\/p>
