The EU sustainability reporting standards (ESRS) are now officially a Delegated Regulation, having been agreed by the President von der Leyen and the College of Commissioners. Barring an unexpected rejection by the co-legislators in the next two months (they can reject the standards, but they cannot amend them), this is the final, fixed version of the ESRS.
The European Council has now agreed its negotiating mandate on SFDR 2.0. In several areas, it represents a significant regression from the Commission's proposal and the Parliament's subsequent draft report.
The EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) is a cornerstone of the EU’s sustainable finance framework, but the Commission’s proposed amendments risk weakening comparability, ambition and product differentiation if key loopholes remain unaddressed.
This study examines the sustainability disclosures of 15 leading financial market participants (FMPs) and 45 associated investment products complying with the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR). It provides critical insights into Art. 8 and 9 products’ objectives and methods, highlights key challenges and emerging best practices.
Join us for our upcoming webinar where we will present the key findings from our analysis of sustainability disclosures by 15 largest investors and 45 investment funds.
We have launched ‘Frankly Speaking’ - a new podcast discussing the latest political, legal, and business developments in the field of ESG, business and human rights, and corporate reporting.
To support our advocacy work on concrete legislative proposals and recommendations, we collaborate with partners from the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia to prepare and publish reports, case studies, data analyses, and examples of international best practices.
