On June 8, 2022, ISDA and the Association for Financial Markets in Europe submitted a joint response to the European Commission’s consultation on the functioning of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) ratings in the European Union (EU) and ESG factors in credit ratings.

The associations did not identify a need for further EU intervention on the incorporation of ESG factors in credit ratings.
