      The EU Green Deal marks a turning point: Europe is striving for climate neutrality by 2050 and is placing ecology, the economy and social responsibility on a new, binding footing. For companies, this means that the rules of the game are changing – and with them the requirements for transparency, control and sustainability. The number of new regulations is growing steadily. Many companies are wondering how they can implement these without sacrificing growth and efficiency, while at the same time using the insights gained to increase efficiency, resilience and new growth potential.

      The Green Deal is a strategic opportunity

      • The Green Deal is not purely a regulatory package

        It is a transformation programme for industry, energy, transport, agriculture and other sectors. 

      • New regulations are challenging, but at the same time they provide guidance.

        Those who act early and integrate sustainability into their corporate strategy can increase efficiency, reduce costs and minimise risks.

      • Sustainability has long been more than just a regulatory obligation

        Companies that effectively measure, manage and utilise ESG targets create measurable added value – for themselves and for their stakeholders.

      Sustainability Value Creation:
      Systematic orientation and implementation

      Our study "Sustainability Value Creation" shows:

      86
      per cent

       
      of the companies surveyed rank sustainability as a strategic priority. 

      75
      per cent

       
      of the companies surveyed  directly link sustainability with financial performance. 

      Already today, more than a third of participants invest at least 10 per cent of their total budget in sustainable measures; in three years, this figure will rise to almost two-thirds. Our experts even expect this figure to triple within this period once the investment share reaches 20 per cent. At the same time, there are major challenges: a lack of data (47 per cent), complex business case developments (41 per cent) and difficulties in gaining management support (31 per cent) make systematic quantification difficult.

      This makes it clear that there is a great need for guidance, structured approaches and transparency relevant to management – and this need continues to grow with every Green Deal regulation.
