The European Retirement Week 2022 took place from 28 November to 3 December 2022.
EFAMA has today published its European Quarterly Statistical Release for Q3 of 2022.
This Release presents for the first time data on the net sales and net assets of SFDR Article 8 and 9 UCITS.
EFAMA members are paying close attention to the ongoing discussions in the European Parliament and Council to reach a compromise on the MiFID review. Together with a broad majority of market participants, including the sell-side and alternative trading venues, we have consistently made the case for a real-time tape for equities with the inclusion of pre and post-trade data.
Following in the footsteps of the European Parliament earlier this month, the Council of the EU has now finalised the legislative process by adopting the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), a move which is very much welcomed by EFAMA. This comes days after the first set of European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), which give life to the double materiality principle established by the CSRD, were finalised by EFRAG and submitted to the European Commission for adoption.
EFAMA spoke with its own Bernard Delbecque, Senior Director of Economics & Research, for the publication of the 8th issue of the "3 Questions 2" (3Q2) series, on rethinking our pension system sustainability and adequacy.
The aim of 3Q2 is to raise awareness on specific topics of interest to our membership in a clear and concise manner.

EFAMA responds to the opportunity to provide feedback to the Article 8 Taxonomy Regulation (EU) 2020/852 (‘taxonomy’) draft delegated act, which the European Commission published for consultation on 7 May. We highlight that the provisions on investee companies in this delegated act will serve as the primary source of input for asset managers´ own disclosures on taxonomy compliance at both product and entity levels.
EFAMA has published its response to the European Commission’s targeted consultation on the supervisory convergence and the Single Rule Book, focusing on three areas for improvement.
The European Find and Asset Management Association appreciates the opportunity to submit its views to the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) on the Joint Consultation Paper (CP) regarding draft regulatory technical standards (RTS) for taxonomy-related sustainability disclosures pursuant to Article 8(4), 9(6) and 11(5) of Regulation (EU) 2019/2088 (Taxonomy Regulation or TR).
EFAMA replied to IASB’s Request for Information on the Post-Implementation Review of IFRS 10, 11 and 12. We are delighted to see an investment entity within the funds industry being acknowledged and catered for in IFRS. The development of the consolidation standards was a very welcomed development in the asset management world.
EFAMA commented on the current VAT rules for financial services and their functioning, as well as on possible changes to these rules, in a public consultation of the European Commission.
