In an international comparison, a new study places Switzerland behind the EU in terms of sustainable finance. Authorities, industry experts and investors, on the other hand, put Switzerland in a leading position. Alannah Beer gives an overview on finews.first.
In early October, ISS ESG research looked at global regulations in sustainable finance. The results they published seem alarming at first glance: in 2022, the scope and speed of regulations in the area of sustainable finance increased worldwide; the EU remains the leader in the “Regulation depth and breath index”. Switzerland, however, scores rather poorly in an international comparison according to the index, which measures the number and breadth of regulatory topics.
«this year, the Confederation issued the first green federal bond and launched the Swiss Climate Scores» Why – despite all these efforts at the highest level – is Switzerland now listed in one of the lower places in the index? To put it simply, the Swiss approach is different. The Federal Council's policy fundamentally relies on market-based solutions and the subsidiarity of state action. As a result, the vast majority of initiatives taken in the area of sustainable finance are not even covered by the index.
