Suptech and greenwashing: A desirable paradigm shift

Retail and institutional investors increasingly choose to invest in assets that align with biodiversity, climate, and other sustainability goals. This trend has led to a surge in the number of financial products claiming to meet ESG objectives. Notably, ESG-labelled debt securities in the global bond market have grown from €135 billion in 2018 to an estimated € 900 billion in 2023, representing around 14 to 16% of the year’s total issuance.
