What’s the difference between traditional and double materiality?

Traditional materiality prioritizes topics based on financial impacts to the company. Double materiality considers both financial materiality and impact materiality—how the company affects people and the environment—aligning with CSRD/ESRS expectations.

How does Veerless run a materiality assessment?

We establish a topic taxonomy and criteria, design stakeholder research (surveys/interviews/workshops), analyze evidence against financial and impact criteria, and deliver a defensible prioritization matrix with governance and roadmap recommendations.

Can you align our assessment to CSRD/ESRS and other frameworks?

Yes. We right-size the approach to your scope and risk, with outputs that map directly to CSRD/ESRS requirements and remain useful for GRI, ISSB/SASB, and internal decision making.

What are typical deliverables and outcomes?

A documented methodology, stakeholder input summary, prioritization matrix with rationale, final material topics list, and guidance for reporting, governance, KPIs, and the multi-year roadmap.

Program Design & Governance

We help you design and build programs that succeed from beneficiary to operations to leadership strategy.

Impact Expands When Success is Shared

Organizations rarely build one overarching strategy. They build several strategic programs that together form the full picture of the organization’s impact and outcomes. The key to great program design is building programs that stakeholders clearly see themselves inside and feel shared accountability of in the long-term scope.
