FinDatEx launches work on ESG target market

FinDatEx initiates a review of its EMT template for the integration of ESG target market criteria, as required by the European Commission’s proposed changes to the MiFID II framework (see here and here). For this purpose, FinDatEx has created a new working group. It is important to note that this new group is not discussing wider ESG disclosure requirements outside the remit of these specific MiFID II changes.


The new working group will operate within the framework of the existing MiFID TWG. In order to ensure sufficient competences of both MiFID and ESG, the group consists of experts from the existing MiFID TWG as well as new participants with a background in sustainable finance. The FinDatEx Steering Group has ensured proportionate representation from all relevant sectors.


The new group will be chaired by the current technical coordinators of the MiFID TWG, Ghislain Perisse (Schroders) and Joakim Alpius (Handelsbanken). Their expertise will be complemented by Nathalie Dogniez’ (PwC Luxembourg) extensive experience in sustainable finance.


If you wish to receive updates on the work of this subgroup, please sign up on FinDatEx’s website here. Please ensure to mark your interest as ‘for information, as FinDatEx is currently not looking for further active members.
