Abstract:
Tato diplomová práce zkoumá soulad zprávy o udržitelnosti vybrané společnosti s Evropskými standardy pro podávání zpráv o udržitelnosti (ESRS). Literární rešerše se zabývá hlavními hybnými silami ESG reportingu, dopady ESG reportingu na výkonnost podniků a rozhodování investorů, jakož i na související rizika a výzvy spojené s udržitelným reportingem. Dále literární rešerše pokrývá také regulatorní prostředí ESG reportingu v Evropské Unii a s ním spojenou Směrnici o podávání zpráv o udržitelnosti podniků a ESRS. Výzkum práce se věnuje především gap analýze souladu reportu s ESRS a identifikací nedostatků a odchylek. Výsledkem výzkumu je hodnocení souladu a formulace doporučení, která pomohou vyšší úrovně souladu s regulatorními požadavky.
