Frankly Speaking - A Podcast on Responsible Business · #112 Nathalie Dogniez & Julian Toth: What Is the Current State of Responsible Investment? · 9 Jun 2026 podcast

Uh how far are you concerned about about those things? voice-verified

We'll see what the European Commission concludes after its consultation. voice-verified

Julian, really on the same point, but there's a debate going on in America. voice-verified

That it doesn't matter that the regulation is rode back. voice-verified

Because investors are going to ask for this information anyway. voice-verified

They're going to do more and more engagement on sustainability issues and that that will fill the gap. voice-verified

And there's a debate going on in Europe that the attempts to have a value chain cap and to limit what information can be asked for, uh, i is going to severely limit the information the investors need. voice-verified

Where do you come down between those two? voice-verified

I've got a last question for for both of you. voice-verified

Julian first. voice-verified

Um, you're a Sherper for the European sustainable finance platform. voice-verified

And of course Europe now for some years has had its sustainable finance strategy, really trying to to uh transition y Europe's own finances towards a sustainable financial system. voice-verified

Um voice-verified

Some people say the Green Deal's just been ripped up and all of the gains of the last five years are lost. voice-verified

Um, is that your view or what do you see in this five years of the European Commission and the European institutions, what do you see as still potentially being progress in terms of y uh European sustainable finance? voice-verified

Natalie, can I ask you an even broader question? voice-verified

Uh Europe is seen as a leader, and so what we've been talking about is absolutely crucial to all this. voice-verified

But on the podcast, when we discuss sustainable finance, I I go back to the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative at UNEPFI, who ten or more years ago now set this um objective of the entire world financial system becoming a sustainable. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

Is that dream still alive and how far w are we uh along the way to getting there? voice-verified
