Webinar: Green Claims to Genuine Practices: Understanding the FCA’s 2024 ESG and Greenwashing Regulations

Transparency, honesty, and sustainability are not just buzzwords but indispensable to the UK financial market this year. With the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) anti-greenwashing rules coming into effect on 31st May 2024, the expectations around sustainable finance is undergoing a significant shift. Our upcoming webinar will unravel the implications of the new regulations, discuss actionable strategies for the impending December deadlines, and provide a comprehensive understanding of the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) market in 2024.

This year will see everything from products, promotions, and sustainability claims come under the green microscope. The broader implications of the new Sustainable Disclosure Requirements (SDR) regime and anti-greenwashing rule demands that the financial sector uphold the highest standards of integrity in sustainability.

This transformative period calls for a proactive approach to ensure that all market participants adhere to the principles of genuine sustainability.

Who is this webinar for?

Our webinar is desgined for all financial industry professionals to gain clarity on the SDR and strategise their compliance. As we work with these changes, the webinar will also explore the opportunities that arise from a more transparent ESG market, where green finance is not just a promise, but a practice.

Join us to delve into:

1. The FCA’s anti-greenwashing rules;
2. Reducing the risk of a greenwashing probe; and
3. Preparing for the SDR regime and sustainable finance, beyond the webinar.
