Stop! In The Name Of Sustainability Funds (i.e., ESMA’s New Guidelines)

The world of ESG explored. A rotating cast of environmental, social, and governance researchers join hosts Mike Disabato and Bentley Kaplan as they discuss the most pressing news of the week. But in an enjoyable way.

We assess the degree of sustainability-related disclosures for European-domiciled funds, their performance on, and disclosure of, select adverse impact indicators, and exposure to sustainable investments.

How do funds stack up against the EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR)? We looked at the ESG characteristics of 207 funds of the top 15 equity and mixed-asset fund managers to see which had disclosed information about their funds.
