ESAP-Justizgesetz – ESAP-JuG

This Austrian government bill (Regierungsvorlage) in the National Council would introduce the national legal framework needed to implement the European Single Access Point (ESAP). ESAP is an EU system under which companies' published financial and sustainability information is made available free of charge through one central European online platform. The bill falls under civil and commercial law, and it is based on the title and subject tags only, not the full legislative text. The bill would mainly affect companies required to file financial and sustainability reports in Austria, as well as the courts and registers that manage those filings. Members of the public and investors would gain easier access to this company information.
