Europe is the epicentre of sustainable investment – what happens here sends ripples around the world.
The European Responsible Investment Network (ERIN) aims to strengthen civil society across Europe, working together to improve accountability and investment practices and mobilise the power of investors to promote sustainable corporate conduct. Through a collaborative approach to capital markets campaigning, we can build a fair and responsible investment system.
Financing the Future We Want
Our agenda for a sustainable and inclusive EU financial sector
ERIN has convened NGOs to publish a manifesto for the EU elections calling on policymakers to make sustainable finance a top priority of the 2024-2029 EU agenda.
The manifesto lays out a bold vision for an EU financial sector that supports people and planet. It has been developed collaboratively with NGOs, setting a shared set of priorities for sustainable finance. With coordinated messaging and joint advocacy, we can drive positive change in the financial sector. way we invest, regulate, and conduct business.
