Materiality analysis – the first step for your sustainability report
Typical challenges faced by our clients
- How can the truly relevant ESG topics be identified?
- How can stakeholder opinions and expectations be effectively integrated?
Why conduct a materiality analysis?
Legal requirements such as the Swiss Code of Obligations and standards like CSRD and GRI increasingly demand a well-founded and transparent materiality analysis. Stakeholders including suppliers, customers and investors also expect clarity on ESG priorities.
Beyond compliance, the materiality analysis provides valuable insights for your corporate strategy.
- A single materiality analysis considers the company’s impact on ESG topics (inside-out perspective).
- A double materiality analysis also examines how ESG factors create financial opportunities and risks for the company (outside-in perspective).
The outcome is visualized in a materiality matrix, which serves as the foundation for both strategy and reporting.
Our approach: support where you need it
We guide you through the entire process, from single or double materiality analysis to stakeholder surveys and the development of a tailored materiality matrix.
Result: Detailed documentation of material topics and a customized materiality matrix.
