SUSTAINABILITY

Today’s corporate landscape doesn’t view sustainability as a mere buzzword. It’s a strategic imperative driving businesses towards a greener and more responsible future.

SUSTAINABILITY is a leading consultancy firm dedicated to guiding organizations through the complexities of environmental stewardship with strategic and sustainable business development. As advisors, the company helps clients view sustainability as a driver of progress and profitability when integrated into the core business strategy. By structuring data effectively and incorporating sustainability into every aspect of operations, it enables businesses to address the multifaceted demands of sustainability including navigating the complexities of environmental regulations, governance issues, and social responsibilities.

Drawing on its expertise in comprehensive assessments and strategic planning, SUSTAINABILITY specializes in double materiality assessments—the cornerstone of emerging reporting standards such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and European Sustainability Reporting Standards.

SUSTAINABILITY’s approach goes beyond compliance to excel in stakeholder engagement, due diligence for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors, and political and regulatory analysis. The company also provides guidance aligned with Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) requirements, ensuring clients are well-prepared for diverse regulatory landscapes, particularly in North America.

“Years of experience in sustainability and business, I have observed a remarkable evolution from idealistic sustainability efforts to investor-driven demands for detailed climate risk information,” says Mette Fossum, CEO. “To that end, our strategies create significant opportunities for businesses to thrive amidst the green shift by addressing both the practical and financial aspects of sustainability.”

The European Green Deal has also been a pivotal game changer, establishing a robust regulatory framework that directs investments towards sustainability. Recognizing this trend, SUSTAINABILITY helps clients secure green finance by developing comprehensive strategies backed by detailed data and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). These KPIs cover various aspects such as climate reduction, diversity and equality, and value chain improvements. With these detailed KPIs, companies can approach banks with a clear sustainability agenda, enhancing their chances of obtaining better loan rates and investment opportunities.

SUSTAINABILITY fosters innovation and growth within the green economy through rigorous climate and nature risk assessments aligned with global standards. These assessments, such as those set by the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and Task Force on Nature-Related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), are crucial for financial institutions that require a thorough understanding of climate and nature-related risks. By focusing on both threats and opportunities, SUSTAINABILITY enables businesses to explore various scenarios, ensuring their resilience and profitability in different climate and nature contexts.

A compelling case study illustrates SUSTAINABILITY’s transformative influence. A client pressured to enhance sustainability performance, partnered with SUSTAINABILITY to develop a tailored strategy. By implementing targeted KPIs and aligning business objectives with environmental goals, the client achieved regulatory compliance and unlocked new growth opportunities and improved financial outcomes.

Today, SUSTAINABILITY is spearheading the movement toward a greener future, ensuring clients embrace environmental accountability through an all-inclusive process that enables them to triumph over future challenges and seek new market openings. As organizations increasingly prioritize sustainable practices, collaborating with SUSTAINABILITY is a strategic step toward creating tomorrow’s blooming environment.
