The event handled issues including regulatory standards in the field of ESG, such as guidance and good practices in transition planning and physical risks, as well as experiences from supervisory practice, covering among other things the adequacy of ESG practices at AT LSIs and ESG in the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process for LSIs (LSI-SREP) and the way forward.
