Market consultation MSCI
Index providers explore the implications of ESMA’s new rules on the use of terms like “ESG” and “sustainable” in fund names due to the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) tightening guidelines on fund names. Although these guidelines apply to funds, many of those funds track indices, which may consequently be impacted.
MSCI ESG Screened indices are already part of a recent MSCI consultation with a renaming proposal (started in April 2024, MSCI consultations under Consultation on proposal to rename three MSCI ESG Indexes).
For more background info on these developments, you can check some research papers on how these regulations interact with existing frameworks such as SFDR; and what this means for the future of sustainable investing in Europe (e.g., STOXX Whitepaper - What’s in a sustainability fund name? In Europe, increasing rigor (PERSPECTIVES REPORT JUNE 2024), or MSCI Research - Identity Check — ESMA’s New Name Guidelines for ESG and Sustainability-Related Funds).
