Sustainable finance regulation in the European Union continues to change at a fast pace, from the development of large frameworks like the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) to the current simplification agenda. Commissioned by the Global Impact Investing Network, we have written a report featuring an introduction for practitioners to the mechanics of EU policymaking. The report aims to provide asset managers, investors and other market participants an understanding of the main players, processes and timelines for EU policymaking in sustainable finance. It allows them to better navigate legislative changes, effectively manage the effects of these changes on the business and bring in their views in public consultation procedures.

Please click here to access the full report. It is also available on the website of the Global Impact Investing Network here.

The report will be launched in a webinar on 17 September 2025 at 10:00 am EDT / 16:00 CEST organized by the Global Impact Investing Network. Further details on the webinar, including a registration link, are available here.
