Amendment 90 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 9 a (new)
(9 a) ELTIFs are intended to promote long-term economic growth in the Union and as such sustainability considerations are at their heart. ELTIFs thus either promote, among other characteristics, environmental or social characteristics or have sustainable investment as their objective. Therefore, ELTIFs should be subject to the requirements of either Article 8 or 9 of Regulation (EU) 2019/2088.

Amendment 124 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 21 a (new)
(21 a) As ELTIFs aim to finance long- term assets, sufficient attention should be given to the risk of assets becoming stranded due to economic transition away from fossil fuels and other polluting activities. Currently investors tend to underprice the risks of legislative action to address climate change. This means they expose their investors to significant risks and increase the cost of the transition to a sustainable economy. As such, ELTIFs should not invest in assets that have a high risk of becoming stranded due to the economic transition. ESMA should develop regulatory technical standards to indicate which assets fall into this category.
