The EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation Level II will be in effect as of January 2023. What does this mean for investors? What are the new requirements and how can they be adopted properly and on time? In order to prepare for this piece of regulation, Robeco has started implementing the new requirements. In this webinar we shared our take on SFDR level II with you: where we stand today and the challenges and outlook going forward.

Robeco’s sustainability experts Anouk in ‘t Veld and Kenneth Robertson shed light on our views on and approach to fulfilling the regulations. They explain what we have already done to meet the January 2023 deadline, what has changed from SFDR level I, and what the impact is on our products. This includes our view on what constitutes a sustainable investment, how funds are classified, what the taxonomy and Principle Adverse Impact mean, and finally, how more than 25 years of experience in SI has equipped Robeco to make all the necessary changes.
