    Esther Griffioen and Jie Chen - Purpose and practice of the EU Taxonomy and the EU Green Bond Standard

    This podcast episode focuses on two pieces of European legislation aimed at supporting the low-carbon transition: the EU Taxonomy and the EU Green Bond Standard. Green bonds play an important role in financing the assets needed for the green transition. With the European Green Bond Standard, the EU wants to set a clear standard for green bonds, based on the detailed criteria of the EU taxonomy to define green economic activities.   Portfolio Manager Rosl Veltmeijer discusses the ins and outs of both policies and how they work in practice with Esther Griffioen, Deputy head of Policy and Risk Management at the Dutch State Treasury Agency and Jie Chen, Investment Analyst at Triodos Investment Management - covering both the issuers’ and the investors’ side of green bonds.

    Quinten Aubineau and Sven Renon - What's behind banks' net zero commitments?

    In this podcast episode, Karel Nierop discusses what's behind the net zero commitments of the financial sector with Quinten Aubineau, Policy Analyst at bank Track, and Sven Renon, Impact Manager at Triodos Bank. Since the Paris climate agreement, most banks and asset managers have committed themselves to a net zero strategy to be in line with a 1,5-degree global warming scenario. But what does net zero exactly mean? And why is it important for financial institutions to have a net zero strategy in place? Quinten Aubineau explains that having a net zero goal is nice but having a concrete action plan in place to get there is even more important. Sven Renon elaborates on the challenges Triodos Bank is facing on the road to net zero.

    Nancy Bocken - Investing in the circular economy

    Our current linear, growth-based economy uses vast quantities of resources to make things which we consume and then throw away. This system depletes finite raw materials and produces vast quantities of waste. In this episode of Inside Impact Investing, fund manager Rosl Veltmeijer discusses how we can turn our linear economy into a circular one with Professor in Sustainable Business Nancy Bocken (Maastricht University) and Chief Economist Hans Stegeman (Triodos Bank). Together, they analyse the role of the financial sector in enabling this transition which goes against the logic of our current market economy and forces us to fundamentally rethink the logic of markets, including the role of investors therein. Paper: Pursuing profitability in slow fashion Fast fashion is a prime example of our current linear economy with a business model relying on consumers endlessly buying more clothes. Its circular opposite is slow fashion, which embodies products that are made to last, and can be serviced to extend the lifespan. But can slow fashion also be profitable?

    Zoë du Chattel and Hadewych Kuiper - What's next for the SFDR?

    The EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), which has taken effect in March 2021, was one of the first regulatory initiatives stemming from the 2018 EU Sustainable Finance Action Plan. It is a sustainability-related disclosure framework for financial market participants and financial advisers focusing on the integration of sustainability risk and the consideration of adverse sustainability impact in the investment process. Since the implementation there has been criticism on its effect. In 2023, the European Commission therefor initiated a consultation on the SFDR.    Both the Dutch financial market authority AFM and Triodos IM published a position paper on how to improve the SFDR. In this podcast episode, Portfolio Manager Rosl Veltmeijer discusses the overlap and the differences between the two positions with Zoë du Chattel, Senior Supervision Officer at AFM and Hadewych Kuiper, Managing Director at Triodos Investment Management. One of the conclusions is that both the AFM and Triodos IM are in favor of a minimum level of disclosure for all funds to create a level-playing field and that both would like to convert the current transparency regime into a labelling regime so retail investors can easily see which product is more or less sustainable.
