The PRI’s report sets out recommendations to ensure that investors can scale up their contribution to the EU Green Deal and sustainability goals more broadly. The report is part of a research programme run by the PRI throughout 2019 and early 2020, drawing from interviews with investors and the PRI’s own programmatic research.
In January 2020, The PRI published a briefing paper and set of interview questionsand undertook a literature review of existing recommendations, taking into account the final report of the High-Level Expert Group on Sustainable Finance, the European Parliament’s own initiative report on sustainable finance, the PRI’s Sustainable Financial System analysis and programmatic research and others.
Recommendations were assessed on the likely impact, the alignment with the PRI’s theory of change and mission, and the intended target audience (only those where the EU or Member States can act were selected for further analysis).
