The expert group deals with Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation.
Among other things, the expert group shares knowledge on the implementation of European sustainability regulations, which require asset managers to publish information on the integration of sustainability risks into the investment process. In addition, it falls under the Sustainability Committee.
The Dutch Fund and Asset Management Association (DUFAS) welcomes the opportunity to respond to the EFRAG Survey on the Amended ESRS Exposure Drafts 2025, to which we have submitted our input today. Representing the asset management sector in the Netherlands, our response signals support for EFRAG's efforts to simplify the European Sustainability Reporting Standards, as well as for important proposals such as in the areas of fair presentation and (reliefs for) anticipated financial effects. However, in our response we also highlight a few areas where we feel the decision usefulness of reporting requirements still needs further improvement.
On May 2nd, the European Commission published a Call for Evidence on the revision of the rules on sustainable finance disclosures. DUFAS has submitted a response to this consultation.
In late February, the European Commission published the "Omnibus I" package, which includes proposals to simplify the sustainable finance framework. The proposals include CSRD reporting and CSDD due diligence legislation. From DUFAS, we have prepared a position statement on this.
