SFDR reclassifications: Article 9 remains the Gold Standard

More than 40% of Article 9 funds were reclassified as Article 8 or even Article 6 by January 2023. What does this tell us about the future of ESG and Impact Investing? Do the metrics need to change, or has the industry fallen behind what is expected of sustainable investment?
 
In this 30-minute webinar, our Director, Wholesale Clients United Kingdom & Ireland, Alan Burnett and our Head of Impact and ESG, Smita Nakhooda, discussed key developments in sustainable finance regulation, the dynamics of steering private finance towards emerging markets, and the metrics and approaches we use to ensure compliance.
