Eurosif welcomes pledge from new EU Commissioners to implement and complete EU sustainable finance framework

On 27 November, Members of the European Parliament, gathered in plenary session in Strasbourg, voted to confirm the appointment of the new college of European Commissioners.

Eurosif welcomes the commitment made by Maria Luís Albuquerque, Commissioner for Financial Services and the Savings and Investments Union, to ensure the EU sustainable finance framework delivers on the objectives of the Green Deal and prevents greenwashing. We also support her promise to create financial product categories underpinned by minimum criteria as part of the review of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).

Eurosif will also be particularly attentive to Commissioner Albuquerque’s pledge to avoid deregulation, echoed by Commissioner for Democracy, Justice and the Rule of Law Michael McGrath’s commitment to implementing the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD).
