ESMA invites the companies concerned to give their views in the framework of the consultation paper on integrating sustainability risks and factors in MiFID II

The CSSF informs that, on 19 December 2018, ESMA published a document titled “Consultation paper on integrating sustainability risks and factors in MIFID II” (ESMA35-43-1210).

This consultation paper is addressed, in particular, to investment firms and credit institutions performing investment services and activities and their staff. It is also of interest to trade associations, investors and consumer groups because the guidelines seek to implement enhanced provisions to ensure investor protection with potential impact for anyone engaged in the dealing with or processing of financial instruments.
