ESMA Guidelines: How to Correctly Label Sustainable Investment Funds? (Women in Sustainable Finance) |
|
As part of the EU Action Plan to redirect capital to sustainable investments, the Sustainable Finance Directive Regulation (SFDR) requires financial market participants to make ESG disclosures on the investment funds they manage. Under this regulation, the first step was for asset managers to inform whether their investment funds pertain to the so-called SFDR Articles: Article 6 for funds with no specific sustainable objective, Article 8 for funds with either social or environmental objectives, and Article 9 for funds where sustainability is the core objective. Hence, Article 9 represents the most advanced funds when it comes to sustainability. |
