Financial market players such as asset management companies and investment managers in particular have been subject to new ESG-related transparency obligations since 2021. The fundamental aim of these new rules is to help direct capital streams towards more sustainable economic activities. For example, the requirements of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and the accompanying Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) have an impact on the design of financial products and investor demand.
