ESG: all you need to know about the new regulation

ESG related issues encompass some of the greatest threats to the existence of humans in the future and yet many discussions remain. When President Biden re-joined the Paris agreement many in Europe breathed a sigh of relief, but this is just the beginning.

Whose responsibility is it to drive the ESG agenda forward; consumers, investors, regulators, corporates or the government? These issues are not new news in the Luxembourg financial sector.

Meanwhile following the 10th of March deadline for the implementation of the high level principles of SFDR. We will reflect on how well or poorly the industry has responded and the continued challenges of SFDR technical compliance for both UCITS and Alternative Funds.

LuxFlag has been promoting sustainable investments for more than 15 years, we have many micro and development funds and the Luxembourg stock exchange is the world leader in the issuance of Green Bonds. But there is still more to do.

Whatever your role, whether in the financial sector or not, this affects you. So join us.

This Round table will be immediately followed by a chance to engage with the audience by joining themed networking rooms.  

Speakers: Claude Marx (CSSF), Julie Becker (Bourse de Luxembourg), Kelly Hebert (M&G) and Olivier Carré (PwC Luxembourg).
