The Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) came into effect on 10 March, 2021, with the aim of reorienting capital flow towards sustainable finance and investment and preventing so-called greenwashing.
While SFDR has undoubtedly succeeded in sharpening the industry’s focus on ESG and ensuring investors are better placed to assess the ESG and sustainability credentials of fund managers, it has also posed a number of challenges for the industry too – particularly in relation to data collection and reporting, given the absence of an industry-wide reporting framework for ESG and readily available data.
To help managers navigate and, ultimately, succeed in the complex and evolving world of SFDR, we have developed this short step-by-step guide in alliance with ESG and sustainability platform provider, Worldfavor.
