https://www.ebf.eu/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/AdobeStock_156600846-1030x687.jpeg1030687On 21 April 2021 the European Commission adopted a legislative proposal for a Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) which would oblige companies under scope to report in compliance with European sustainability reporting standards adopted by the European Commission as delegated acts.Sustainable finance plays a fundamental role in delivering on the policy objectives under the European Green Deal. While the EU policy makers have rolled out an ambitious sustainable finance framework, a lot of work remains to be done. To ensure that private investments are directed efficiently, combining policy with scientific knowledge is necessary. In this respect, we support the magnificent work of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) in developing research to support European policies.
