Recital 9 a (new)
Recital 9 a (new)
(9 a) The taxonomy framework for investing in sustainable investments should primarily serve to facilitate investment of this type and should not be a tool for forced reallocation of investment from other projects. The taxonomy framework for investing in sustainable investments should not fundamentally affect the availability/costs of other forms of financing. It is necessary to consider what impacts the “sustainable” instruments can have on the “non-sustainable” ones that have been realised earlier. Also it is important to stipulate that this Regulation should only be applicable to new investments to avoid retroactivity effect.
