Sustainability-related disclosures

Further to the adoption of the 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change, the Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2019 on sustainability-related disclosure requirements in the financial services sector ("SFDR") is part of the European Union Action Plan for Financial Sustainable Growth released on 2018 with the aim to:

  • Reorient capital flows towards sustainable investment;
  • Mainstreaming sustainability into risk management;
  • Fostering transparency and long-termism.

The main objective of SFDR is to establish harmonised rules for sustainability-related disclosures and contains transparency obligations on a product and entity level applying, among others, to UCITS and AIF SICAVs and their Management Companies, with the aim to enhance transparency on three main topics:

  • Sustainability risks;
  • Principal adverse impacts of investment decisions on sustainability factors;
  • Promotion of environmental or social characteristics and of sustainable investments.

The main provisions of the SFDR apply from 10th of March 2021.
