Buying Blind? Inside Europe's First DAX40 Carbon Credit Audit

Senken and Sylvera just published the first full audit of every DAX40 carbon credit disclosure under CSRD's ESRS E1-7 standard. 39 companies. 21 active buyers. 4.84 million credits. Three months of work cross-referencing seven public registries, California AB 1305 filings, press releases and broker documentation.

The findings are uncomfortable. 0 of 39 companies disclosed a single project ID within CSRD filing. 45% of reported volume could not be independently traced. Of the 90 projects we could identify and Sylvera could rate, 57% scored below BBB - the credibility threshold.

Join Adrian Wons, CEO & Founder of Senken, and Carmen Alvarez, Policy Lead at Sylvera, for a live walkthrough of the report and open Q&A.

What you'll take away

• Why every DAX40 CSRD filing is technically compliant and independently unverifiable at the same time
• How SAP and Deutsche Bank's California AB 1305 filings prove the data already sits in every procurement system in Europe
• What Bayer, DHL, Commerzbank and Scout24 do differently, and how to copy it
• Where ESRS E1-7 likely lands by FY2026, and how to get ahead of the next cycle
