AEIP responded to the European Commission’s open consultation on the renewed sustainable finance strategy. AEIP believes that the momentum is a good opportunity to promote environmental goals and create clarity around risks and new investment opportunities. At the same time, environmental changes need to go hand in hand with a renewed social and governance approach.
