Over the past few years, financial market operators have gained a deeper understanding of the importance of incorporating environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations into asset allocations and also recognised the growing demand among clients for investments based on these principles. This is the concept of sustainable finance, which involves applying the idea of sustainable development to a financial activity, representing a new paradigm that is spreading rapidly. Regulatory authorities have been involved in an intense and still ongoing activity, resulting in the publication of regulations aimed at directing financial operators toward integrating sustainability risks and objectives in their investment and advisory processes. This effort also aims to enhance informational transparency to final clients. The session will focus on the interconnections between ESG issues and the evolving regulatory landscape of sustainable finance, such as the European Green Bond standard, the EU Taxonomy, the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and other global regulatory initiatives.
