EU adviser group publishes its social taxonomy report

The EU social taxonomy aims to create a workable classification for companies and investors. Coupled with legislation prescribing fines for businesses with poor human rights oversight, it may begin to bring the S in ESG to the fore.

Ahead of the EU Platform on Sustainable Finance’s publication of its social taxonomy proposal, released today, Sustainable Views spoke to Antje Schneeweiss, the platform’s rapporteur for the technical subgroup on the social taxonomy. She is also secretary of AKI, the working group of church investors in the German Protestant Church.
