ESG - Is Sustainable Investing moving into the mainstream?
summary
Panel states that EU rules are already changing capital allocation via SFDR and Taxonomy and new tools: TCFD-aligned disclosure, stewardship, voting and engagement. Evidence includes filing resolutions (Exxon vote >60%), Climate Action 100+ targets, a 450-investor letter representing ~$40tn ahead of COP26. Practical problems: data gaps, 16 PAI indicators to report, inconsistent ESG ratings, and taxonomy delegated acts due Q3–Q4 2021 with debates on incineration, gas and transition pathways. Watch if regulatory detail and implementation realities matter.
