E-book: 'Practical implications of ESG disclosure regulations'

Article
EU Law

As of 10 March 2021, many financial market participants and financial advisers will be subject to new disclosure obligations following the entry into force of the EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) on 29 December 2019. The SFDR sets rules on transparency with a view to promoting both the integration of sustainability risks into investment processes and disclosures to investors.

On 23 April 2020, the European Supervisory Authorities EBA, EIOPA and ESMA (collectively the ESAs) published a joint consultation paper seeking feedback on the proposed regulatory technical standards (RTS) which specify how to address the obligations created by the SFDR. The disclosure requirements will have a significant impact on current disclosure practices. In view of the challenging timelines, financial institutions need to prepare now. 

This e-book discusses the practical implications and challenges facing financial market participants and financial advisers during the implementation of the SFDR and the RTS.
