In the course of its data checking and verification process (of each metric per agency), the Groupe CSR Department was in direct contact with all the local teams during the final consolidation phase. All of the quantitative data and qualitative information is checked and analyzed by the Groupe CSR Department, which is responsible for the Groupe’s published consolidated reporting.
The teams responsible for controlling financial statements, FMC (Financial Monitoring Control), and Internal Audit verify, as part of their work, compliance with the financial and extra-financial reporting processes within the entities.
The report of the Statutory Auditors in charge of verifying the sustainability information, KPMG & PricewaterhouseCoopers Audit, can be found in Section 4.5, in accordance with the CSRD regulatory requirements, with a limited level of assurance.
