ESG

ESG regulation, traced into your policies

The ESG rulebook, split into obligations

Regulatory Nexus splits the ESG regulations and their standards into individual requirements, each keeping the reference it came from.

1
Requirements, not articles
One article holds several obligations. Each becomes its own work item.
2
Policy-level by design
ESG requirements land on policies and disclosures, so that is where the mapping stops. No control layer.
3
Read by the team that owns it
The same requirement, seen from sustainability, risk, reporting or compliance.
4
Standards where they belong
The technical standard that elaborates a requirement sits with it.

Add an explicit obligation for deployers of emotion recognition and biometric categorisation systems to inform the affected natural persons about the operation of the system.

Reasoning
Reference

Embedment, validated clause by clause

A policy that mentions a topic is not the same as a policy that meets the requirement. Embedment validation names the clause that satisfies each obligation, and says where the wording falls short.

1
Clause-level match
Each requirement is tied to the passage in your policy that answers it.
2
Vague wording named
Where a clause gestures at the obligation without meeting it, the shortfall is stated.
3
Annual reporting in the same check
What you publish is validated against the same requirements as the policies behind it.
4
Gaps go to an owner
A missing or weak clause becomes a task with a name and a deadline.
Recommendation AI
Addition: Add an explicit obligation that human oversight prevents risks to health, safety and fundamental rights from reasonably foreseeable misuse.

One place for the documents that carry it

Policies, disclosures and the reports built on them are versioned together, so the wording that applied at the time can be produced later.
Policy library, versioned
Every ESG policy and disclosure in Vault, with the version that applied when a statement was published.
Reporting traced to source
Statements in the annual report link back to the requirement and the policy clause behind them.
Wording gaps as work
Each shortfall is a task against a named owner, tracked until the clause is amended.

Requirements and reporting move together

New standards and guidance change both what the policy has to say and what the report has to disclose. Horizon Scanning picks the change up and Impact Assessment scopes it to your mapped policy set.

1
Change flagged at source
New ESG standards, consultations and guidance are picked up as they publish.
2
Impact scoped to your policies
The assessment names the requirements, policies and disclosures affected.
3
One audit trail
Every validation, override and approval stays traceable to the person who made it.

Addition: Add an explicit obligation that human oversight prevents risks to health, safety and fundamental rights from reasonably foreseeable misuse.
