ESG report for your bank or client: what to send

Banks and large customers like ČEZ, Orlen or Slovnaft ask suppliers for an ESG report. Without it you face a higher interest rate or lose the contract. We'll prepare it for you to the VSME standard.

Is this you?

Companies with 50–200 employees and €2–50 million turnover, supplying a corporation or financed by a bank.

What happens if you don't deliver it

  • A pricier loan

    Without the report, the bank prices the credit higher.

  • A supplier rating

    The customer scores you as a supplier. A weak score can cost you the contract.

Common questions

What is VSME?

VSME is the voluntary sustainability reporting standard from EFRAG for non-listed SMEs. The sample follows that standard, including the basic and comprehensive modules.

How does VSME differ from CSRD?

CSRD is mandatory reporting for large companies. VSME is the shorter standard a bank or customer can ask a smaller supplier to use when that supplier is outside the CSRD scope.

How long does it take?

Data collection, the calculation and the finished report usually take 2–4 weeks.

What does it cost?

The published ESG reporting plan is €300 per report. If your scope is different, we confirm the price on a call.

Why does this still matter if the US has slowed down?

The request does not come from a US regulator. It comes from your bank or from a customer such as ČEZ, Orlen or Slovnaft. Those buyers still ask suppliers for a VSME report, including after the EU narrowed who must report under CSRD.
