What was once viewed as a \u201cbest practices report\u201d is now treated as information with economic impact, subject to scrutiny from investors, regulators, and increasingly, disputes and accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Brazil, this movement gained regulatory traction with CVM Resolution 193, which addresses the preparation and disclosure of Sustainability-Related Financial Information Reports, based on ISSB standards (IFRS S1 and IFRS S2).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The practical consequence is clear: in 2026, many companies will need to raise the level of governance, traceability, and consistency of reported data \u2014 and this brings a risk that concerns boards and investors alike: greenwashing and material inconsistencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article explains what is changing, where the main risks arise, and how technical evidence approaches, accounting analysis, and forensic investigations reduce exposure, increase reporting reliability, and protect decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Changes with ISSB-Aligned Sustainability Reporting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CVM Resolution 193 establishes the adoption, within Brazil, of sustainability reports based on ISSB standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2025, CVM also implemented specific adjustments to facilitate voluntary adoption of equivalent Brazilian standards (CBPS 01\/IFRS S1 and CBPS 02\/IFRS S2) and indicated deadlines and conditions for market communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In practice, reporting ceases to be merely \u201cnarrative\u201d and begins to require consistency with financial data, focusing on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Materiality (what truly matters and impacts the company)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Governance (how decisions and controls support disclosed information)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Metrics and targets (how performance is measured, monitored, and explained)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Climate risk (IFRS S2) and its connections to strategy and finance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, CVM has strengthened a more proactive stance in promoting, regulating, and supervising sustainable finance matters, increasing the importance of informational consistency and quality of evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/dfexa.com.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Pericia-contabil-e-relatorios-de-sustentabilidade-em-2026_01.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-849\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dfexa.com.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Pericia-contabil-e-relatorios-de-sustentabilidade-em-2026_01.png 900w, https:\/\/dfexa.com.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Pericia-contabil-e-relatorios-de-sustentabilidade-em-2026_01-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/dfexa.com.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Pericia-contabil-e-relatorios-de-sustentabilidade-em-2026_01-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why 2026 Increases the Risk of Greenwashing and Inconsistencies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The risk increases for a simple reason: the pressure to publish (and publish effectively) often advances faster than the maturity of data, processes, and controls. This gap creates space for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Claims Not Supported by Evidence:<\/strong> Targets, reductions, and initiatives described without traceability: \u201cwe reduced emissions,\u201d \u201csustainable supply chain,\u201d \u201cclean energy,\u201d \u201ccompensation,\u201d \u201czero deforestation,\u201d etc;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Inconsistent Metrics Across Departments:<\/strong> ESG data that does not align with engineering, operations, finance, and accounting. In most cases, the issue is not fraud, but weak governance, inconsistent definitions, and lack of reconciliation;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Poorly Defined Boundaries and Scopes:<\/strong> The same indicator changing its basis over time (organizational perimeter, Scope 1\/2\/3 emissions, units, methodologies).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Insufficient Controls and Lack of Audit Trail: <\/strong>Without documentary evidence, logs, version control, approvals, and reconciliations, the company becomes exposed to scrutiny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Rush to Communicate Commitments: <\/strong>When reporting becomes a reputational asset, incentives to embellish narratives increase \u2014 and so does the risk of challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where Problems Typically Appear: Common Signs of Inconsistency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In dispute and investigation projects, certain recurring patterns emerge when the issue is reporting credibility:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Indicators showing \u201cperfect\u201d improvement without plausible operational explanation;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Methodological changes without transparency or reconciliation bridges;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Discrepancies between reports (sustainability vs. annual vs. investor relations vs. presentations);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Announced targets without plans, budgets, or governance structure;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supplier data accepted without minimum validation;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relevant estimates and assumptions lacking supporting documentation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p>These signs do not necessarily indicate bad faith. However, they highlight a critical point: without technical evidence and an audit trail, reporting becomes a vulnerability \u2014 particularly in situations involving shareholders, regulators, stakeholders, and eventually litigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Technical Evidence Reduces Risk: From Data Governance to Defensible Reporting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The technical approach to reducing greenwashing risk does not begin \u201cin the report.\u201d It begins with data governance structures and procedures that make reporting defensible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1) Clear Definition of Materiality and Scope<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step is ensuring the company clearly understands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Which topics are material;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which organizational and operational perimeter is being reported;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which assumptions and criteria guide inclusion and exclusion.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2) Reconciliation and Financial Consistency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ISSB-aligned sustainability reports require coherence with strategy and financial impacts.
