Abstract da intervenção

Sustainable finance plays a central role in the European Union's agenda. In view of the major challenges posed by climate change and environmental degradation, it was considered that the financial system should play a crucial role in achieving a greener and more sustainable economy. Consequently, several legislative measures have been adopted by the European Union, notably to increase market transparency (e.g. disclosure) and to create innovative instruments to identify and label environmentally sustainable activities (e.g. taxonomy). In addition, regulatory and supervisory mechanisms have been strengthened. Furthermore, the European Union's legislative framework has been improved. However, it should not be forgotten that the dangers posed by climate change and biodiversity loss are global.
