DID YOU KNOW?

Non-compliance with sustainability regulations can cost businesses up to 4% of annual turnover in fines and penalties.

Sustainability compliance is complex and overwhelming, with evolving regulations, industry standards, and reporting requirements. Many companies struggle with data confidence due to the fragmented nature of sustainability data, making independent management a challenge. This often results in disclosure risks, greenwashing accusations, brand damage, and leadership credibility concerns.

 

Through our platform and expert advisory services, GCX delivers a tailored sustainability compliance framework that helps boards and executives meet global and sector-specific sustainability reporting standards—ensuring your business remains compliant and competitive.

Bernard Jacobs

DIGITAL DIRECTOR

After 14 years in the marine water sector Bernard joined GCX in 2013 and initially focused on water sustainability at corporate level. It was this process that highlighted that “most” corporates, with all good intentions, do not have the know-how, ability or understanding of how to go about gathering, managing and reporting responsible data.

During his tenure at GCX, Bernard combined his formal accounting training, his IT skills and worked together with the highly skilled technical team at GCX and its associates to develop the GCX GCX Data Analytics and Sustainability Hub (DASH-).
