MSCI Response to Regulatory Developments, Trends in the European Fund Universe, and Product Governance for Financial Advisory

The European Sustainable Finance regulatory agenda continues to be a major priority for financial market participants, who are striving to comply in the absence of clear definitions, available data and integration in product governance.

In anticipation of more regulatory developments later in the year, we are pleased to invite you to an in-person breakfast event on April 20, 2023 to take stock on the trends we have been observing in the market, and share how our data and tools have been helping clients respond to these regulatory requirements.

Veronique Menou-Lieblich, Global Head of ESG Regulatory Solutions, will focus on how MSCI is helping create market consensus around ‘Sustainable Investment’ and ‘Do Not Significant Harm’ definitions, highlighting trends across the EMEA region and our data governance. Rumi Mahmood, MSCI Head of ESG and Climate Fund Research, will offer his insight into how the market is responding to the regulatory pressure in terms of product creation and classification, flows and trends. Gaetano Nappi and Angelo Peirano, both MSCI Analytics Team, will show how MSCI investment analytics powers sustainable factor integration into product governance process and transforms it to become the internal central hub for financial advisory.
