Financial markets reward short-term results. For this reason, many companies, financial or not, still work under pressure to achieve good results in the short term rather than imposing longer-term objectives such as those related to environmental and social sustainability.
This is changing, as society is increasingly aware that the environment and economic development are highly correlated.

An economic system cannot exist without an ecological system.
STRATEGIC FOCUS – GREEN BONDS
The ECB believes that institutions should take a strategic, forward-looking and comprehensive approach to climate-related and environmental risks.
In view of the growing importance of climate change for the economy and the growing evidence of its financial impact on banks, the ECB stress test in 2022 is planned to target climate-related risks.
The European Green Bond Standard (EUGBS) is a voluntary standard to help scale and elevate the environmental ambitions of the green bond market.
SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT FUNDS
Socially responsible investment funds (ISR) are collective investment institutions that choose the assets that make up their portfolio based on environmental, social and corporate governance criteria.
The Socially Responsible Investment (ISR) funds are managed including extra-financial criteria in the decisions.
This is one of the fastest growing areas in the asset management industry.
