ESG & Sustainability

Sustainability reporting after the Omnibus: what you still have to do, and what your clients and banks still want to know.

Under the Omnibus Directive (EU) 2026/470, the direct Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) obligation now applies to large, non-listed companies with more than 1,000 employees and more than €450 million in revenue, expected from financial year 2027. The cap on value-chain information requests is anchored in section 243ba of the Austrian Commercial Code (UGB). As of September 2026; a further revision of the Austrian Sustainability Reporting Act (NaBeG) is expected in autumn 2026.
