ECON Committee proposes major changes to EU corporate sustainability reporting rules
The European Parliament's Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (ECON) adopted an opinion on 15 July 2025, proposing significant amendments to EU corporate sustainability reporting requirements. The opinion recommends increasing the reporting threshold to companies with over 5,000 employees and €450m in net worldwide turnover, replacing the current 1,000-employee threshold. For value chain reporting, companies would be prevented from seeking information from business partners below these thresholds, thereby significantly reducing reporting obligations.
