- Changes in national and international regulations and policies impacting reporting requirements and business operations.
- The risk of carbon leakage due to increased climate ambition level in the EU.
- Further reduction of free allocation of CO2 emission rights, potentially entailing additional costs and requiring significant investments.
- Risk of loss of competitiveness in non-EU markets due to CBAM and less stringent rules in non-European nations.
- Cybersecurity threats and cybercrime.
