At the end of 2016, the European Commission established a High-Level Expert Group on Sustainable Finance to help develop a comprehensive, overarching EU strategy on sustainable finance. The group comprises 20 policy leaders from civil society, the finance sector and academia. Philippe Zaouati, CEO of Mirova, Natixis Asset Management’s subsidiary dedicated to responsible investment, who chairs as well Finance For Tomorrow, the new name for the Paris financial centre’s initiatives on green and sustainable finance, is part of these experts.

After six months of intensive work, the Expert Group has summarised first results and policy options in its Interim Report. The final report is due in December 2017.
