PODCAST: What do new sustainability regulations mean for ESG investors in Europe?

As real estate looks to cut its carbon footprint, regulation is set to play a bigger part in how investment decisions are made

tháng ba 12, 2021

As part of a wider drive to make Europe’s real estate greener, a new Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) has come into play - with big implications for investors.

From 10 March 2021, SFDR puts binding Environment Social Governance (ESG) disclosure obligations in place for investors putting capital into Europe or funds marketing there.

The new requirements precede forthcoming EU Taxonomy, a classification tool that will require funds and investment vehicles promoted as environmentally friendly to be much clearer on their green objectives. It will come into force from 1 January 2022.
