At the European level, the European Green Deal represents a comprehensive and ambitious roadmap to achieve climate neutrality by 2050, with a wide range of directives and actions aimed at ensuring sustainable practices across various sectors.
In parallel, the European Union has introduced the Sustainable Finance Action Plan, aiming to channel private capital towards sustainable investments, integrate sustainability considerations into financial risk management, and enhance transparency and disclosure in the financial sector, with key regulations such as the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), and the EU Taxonomy Regulation.
These regulations are designed to combat greenwashing and provide investors with clear, comparable information on the sustainability of their investments.
At the international level, frameworks such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), Task Force on Nature-related Financial Disclocures (TNFD) are encouraging companies and asset managers to disclose the impacts of ESG related risks and opportunities.
The growing emphasis on regulatory compliance is also reflected in national policies, with many countries developing their own sustainability-related regulations and guidelines, often aligned with global and regional standards such as Article 29 of the French Law on energy and climate.
For corporates, adhering to these evolving regulations means reassessing their business models, supply chains, and operational practices to ensure compliance.
Asset managers, on the other hand, are challenged to integrate sustainability into their investment strategies, ensuring that they consider ESG risks, impacts and opportunities in portfolio construction and management.
As the regulatory landscape continues to evolve, both corporates and asset managers must stay up to date and agile, adapting their strategies to meet new requirements, and to avoid liability, reputational and financial risk.
