econsense infographic provides comprehensive overview of Sustainable Finance issues

The field of Sustainable Finance is developing rapidly, especially at the EU level. More and more studies and regulatory requirements are being published, and a large number of actors are working simultaneously on issues in this field. Keeping track of these developments can be challenging. In order to provide a comprehensive and easily accessible overview, econsense, with the support of the econsense member HSBC Germany, has developed and published an infographic on this topic. The graphic provides clear and compact information on key EU guidelines, regulations, studies, and working groups on finance and reporting topics.

econsense is a network of large, internationally operating companies, the majority of which are listed. Our network covers the entire spectrum of corporate actors in the field of Sustainable Finance. This includes financial and non-financial companies from a large variety of sectors, auditors, and consultancies. Some of our members are active in official Sustainable Finance expert groups on the national and European level.

The new econsense infographic builds on the ten elements of the EU Sustainable Finance Action Plan. Hence, it covers current topics such as the EU Sustainable Finance Taxonomy, the Non-Financial Reporting Directive, disclosure requirements in the financial sector, green bonds, and sustainable corporate governance. All concepts are accompanied by an information text that provides links to original documents and further resources. After reading this concise summary, readers can therefore continue their own research on the topic if required. Furthermore, the infographic provides a better understanding of the links between the concepts and how various EU working groups relate to each other. This makes it easy for readers to navigate the Sustainable Finance landscape!
