UK Sustainable Investment and Finance Association (UKSIF) research reveals that more favorable policies could shift up to £100 billion in assets under management (AUM) towards sustainable finance in the UK. The report highlights that 69% of finance sector decision-makers believe uncertainty over sustainability policy limits UK investment. Additionally, 95% of large UK finance firms would boost investments in green projects with better policies. UKSIF calls for a clear sustainability disclosure regime, clarification of fiduciary duties for pension schemes, and embedding biodiversity into the regulatory framework to maintain the UK’s leadership in sustainable finance and meet net zero goals.
