- Nearly 70% of UK businesses support mandatory sustainability reporting
- 50% cite regulatory uncertainty as the top compliance challenge
- Almost half are testing automation, though most still rely on manual reporting
A new study from sustainability software firm osapiens shows that over two-thirds of UK companies view sustainability reporting not just as a compliance requirement, but as a driver of innovation and competitive advantage.
The survey, which polled 150 senior sustainability leaders, revealed strong momentum behind mandatory disclosure, with 69% in support. Of those, 41.5% backed a tiered system that would account for the capacity of smaller firms.
