Nordic Swan Ecolabel in the Context of Emerging European ESG Regulatory Requirements

The Nordic Swan Ecolabel was established by the Nordic Council of Ministers in 1989 and is the official ecolabel of the Nordic countries for more than 60 different product groups. Nordic Swan Ecolabel is also one of the founders (1994) of the international network for ISO 14024 Type 1 ecolabels. In 2017, Nordic Ecolabelling released guidelines that financial products must meet in order to become a Nordic Swan Ecolabelled fund.
 
Join us on May 4th to discuss with the representatives of the Nordic Ecolabelling, market practitioners and MSCI, the main goals of the label, practical considerations and MSCI’s solutions in the context of Nordic Swan Ecolabel for funds and the upcoming regulatory requirements in Europe.
