The ISS ESG SFDR Principal Adverse Impact Solution was originally launched in April 2021 to enable Financial Market Participants to comply with the new EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation and report on Principal Adverse Impacts, for products and portfolios distributed in the EU. ISS ESG provides automated portfolio reporting to facilitate investors’ compliance with Sustainable Finance Disclosure Requirements (SFDR). This includes reporting against specific Principal Adverse Impact (PAI) indicators, as well as supporting clients in taking a data driven approach to level 1 qualitative disclosures, taking into account sustainability risks and addressing broader adverse impacts of their investments. The report also helps to justify the classification of financial products into article 6, 8 and 9.
