Methodology for Eurosif Market Studies on Sustainability-related Investments


Detalles

This publication includes a new methodology for the preparation of future market studies on sustainability-related investments across Europe. The methodology is designed to reflect the evolving nature of the market and proposes four distinct categories of sustainability-related investments that reflect the level of ambition of the investments to actively contribute to the transition to a fairer and more sustainable economy:

- Core ESG investments
- Advanced ESG investments
- Investments aligned with impact
- Impact Investments

The methodology will serve as the basis for future market research conducted by Eurosif in cooperation with its members and will be implemented throughout 2024, with the first market study planned for 2025 covering 2024 data. The methodology will also be available to all Sustainable Investment Forums globally and other stakeholders.

This methodology has been developed through Eurosif's SRI Study Group (SSG) in cooperation with Professor Timo Busch from the University of Hamburg and Eric Prüßner from Advanced Impact Research GmbH (AIR), in a process involving market professionals from all over Europe for years.

The methodology is not intended to reflect the categorisations of sustainable products set out in regulatory frameworks, but to be comprehensive with such systems and labels as they emerge.
