UK SDR and other regimes

Following on from our six-part series on the sustainability disclosure regulations established by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA“), we look at UK SDR and other regimes.

On 25 October 2022, the FCA released a Consultation Paper on UK Sustainability and Disclosure Requirements (“SDR”) and investment labels (CP22/20). This paper compares…

the SDR proposals with other existing regimes, highlighting the similarities and differences. The key areas of focus include:

1) New Consumer Duty (“NCD“)

2) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC“)

3) EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (“SFDR“)

To explore these similarities and differences in more detail, we have prepared a concise one-page guide that can be accessed here.
