EU SFDR: Since 2021, in an effort towards increasing transparency and integrating sustainability risks, the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) imposes mandatory ESG disclosure: investors must report quantitatively on Principal Adverse Impacts (PAIs) of their portfolios.
Who is affected? Asset managers, EU banks, venture capital funds, and all the other financial market participants (FMP).
The problem: Investors have difficulties finding the necessary data to comply with EU SFDR reporting requirements, as PAI data is often not readily available and difficult to collect.

Want to know more about SFDR PAI disclosure?
PAIs consist of a list of sustainability factors that firms need to take into account for their investment policies and decisions. Those indicators relate to environmental and social topics. According to the regulation, asset managers, EU banks, venture capital funds, and all the other financial market participants (FMPs) must disclose on a set of mandatory indicators.
