Working Groups

Public Policy Group

The Public Policy Group constitutes the main forum in which Eurosif members share information and formulate common policy positions. It is coordinated by the Eurosif policy team and comprised of representatives of national SIFs and their members. The policy remit of the PPG is broad, and it acts as the clearing house for all substantive policy positions; whether they pertain to the EU Taxonomy, the SFDR, corporate disclosures or ESG ratings - to name only a few. The PPG adopts a strategic and holistic view of the EU Sustainable Finance agenda, and complementary initiatives at global level, and enables Eurosif to engage in active policy formulation. The work of the PPG is guided by the goal of optimising the EU Sustainable Finance framework to ensure it delivers on its initial aim – to reorient capital to sustainable investments. The PPG’s output provides the foundation of Eurosif’s policy positioning on a range of issues and allows Eurosif to engage constructively with policymakers in Brussels and beyond.

SFDR Advisory Group

The Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) Advisory Group provides a forum to critically analyse the SFDR framework and identify areas where this regulation could be enhanced or improved upon in future. It follows a specific request from Eurosif members which highlighted the need to conduct research into the post-SFDR market, increase exchanges and information sharing to better understand and manage the implementation of this regulation at technical level and identify areas for future reform.

SRI Study Group

The Sustainable and Responsible Investment (SRI) Study Group contributes to the elaboration of the Eurosif report, focusing on the trends and dynamics in the SRI market. It is coordinated by the Eurosif team and made up of representatives of national SIFs.

Sustainability Data Advisory Group

The Sustainability Data Advisory Group (SDAG) brings together sustainability experts to ensure that the most important provisions for investors are maintained in ongoing policy reforms and to identify the most relevant data points for investors and support Eurosif’s response to the Omnibus I proposal and ESRS simplification.
