The Statement encourages the development of disclosure standards for securitised assets through harmonised climate-related data requirements.
The European Supervisory Authorities[1] (ESAs), together with the European Central Bank (ECB), today published a Joint Statement on climate-related disclosure for structured finance products.
Currently, there is a lack of climate-related data on the assets underlying structured finance products. This poses an obstacle for the classification of products and services under the EU Taxonomy Regulation and Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and hinders the proper assessment and management of climate-related risks. The Statement sets out the joint efforts of the ECB and the ESAs to facilitate access to climate-related data with a view to improving sustainability-related transparency in securitisations and to promote consistent and harmonised requirements for similar instruments.
