SFDR - different endpoints affected by M10 Assessment Selector

Summary (What?)

We have updated our Global Norms methodology, which impacts SFDR PAI M10: Violations of UN Global Compact principles and Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises

Clients can now choose between two approaches:

ApproachDescription
ComprehensiveThe existing methodology: broader scope of norms assessment. This is the current default and requires no changes to your integration.
TargetedThe new methodology: a more focused norms assessment. Opt-in via a new query parameter.

This choice is available across all channels, including the SFDR API endpoints.

Business impact (Why?)

The possibility to choose between these 2 approaches will accommodate the current differing supervisory expectations and market practices.
