The whole world is looking at sustainability not just as a beautiful concept, but as the only effective way to build the future of the planet. Just think of the recently held COP26 (26th United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties).
Environmental, Social and Governance principles for a sustainable finance
This is why the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues are increasingly at the core of the politics and financial debate. So much at the core to become, on one hand, the basis for principles which governments and companies need to be compliant with, while, on the other hand, the engine of some financial products in the form of funds and investments.
All these elements are expressed with the acronym ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) and affect many aspects of our society, especially the banking world. ESG risks and reporting are becoming increasingly sensible issues for financial institutions. And our AI assistant answers to this new need, by optimizing the compliance management processes.
ESG guidelines: from Product Governance to Risk Management
The ESG Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) have recently become a real key word in the financial sector, but not many compliance professionals know how to move in this new maze. Surely there are some regulatory documents by the European Union to refer to with regards to ESG, including the EU Regulation 2019/2088 (SFDR), the EU Regulation 2020/852 and the more recent Proposal for a Regulation on European Green Bonds, but the situation is still far to be clear and defined.
Also considering the general context of finance together with the current debate on machine readable regulations and new technological tools needed to help both regulators and financial institutions cooperate effectively. The terms sustainable finance and EU Green deal risk to remain just agreeable concepts without adequate guidance from the authorities, such as the European Commission, but also without appropriate technological solutions to manage this complex scenario.
Focusing on the Product Governance point of view, companies need help to create sustainable financial credit products, with the appropriate safety required also to produce ESG certifications, and also to properly carry out marketing activities. Turning to Risk Management, financial institutions cannot handle it without a digital and real-time access to banking regulations.
Well, our AI assistant has been created exactly to offer financial compliance professionals these possibilities, thus allowing them to make right decisions, based on precise information obtained in a reasonable time.
