LuxFLAG, the organisation providing ESG, Environment and Microfinance fund labels to promote responsible investments, has confirmed the next date for submission of applications to the labelling process will be 2 August.

Fund providers seeking to obtain a LuxFLAG lable must submit details of their funds, which are subject to review of the investment processes before they can be labelled. ESG funds are checked to ensure that they invest their assets according to ESG considerations through the full investment process; environmental funds are checked to ensure they invest primarily in environment-related sectors in a responsible manner; and microfinance funds are checked to ensure that they invest directly or indirectly in the microfinance sector.

By way of measure, the World Bank, through its Treasury operations has issued over $9bn in Green bonds through over 120 transactions in 18 currencies as part of its efforts to tackle climate change.
