DESCRIPTION:Greater transparency in the workings of the economy is a prereq
 uisite for reaching international climate targets as well as a whole range
  of other aims subsumed under the label of sustainable finance. The key to
  making business practices more transparent is sustainability disclosure b
 ased on reporting standards\, which guide or even mandate companies to rev
 eal their environmental and social impacts in detail. For example\, compan
 ies report their global greenhouse gas emissions and how they acknowledge 
 workers' rights or other environmental and social aspects. Pinning down at
  which point in complex global supply chains emissions occur and defining 
 who these can be attributed to will be crucial for financial actors to ali
 gn their investments with sustainability standards. Moreover\, the data pr
 ovided under commonly accepted standards will also be needed by companies 
 themselves who want to lend credibility to climate neutrality claims as we
 ll as by governments that want to understand how to clean up national indu
 stries.In the second instalment of an in-depth series on sustainable finan
 ce\, the German Sustainable Finance Research Platform and Clean Energy Wir
 e invite international journalists to join in on 9 June at 3pm (CET) to fi
 nd out more about the 'transparency gap' and how it can be closed to make 
 finance a real driver of global energy transition and other sustainability
  efforts. Together with experienced sustainable finance analysts and resea
 rchers\, we will assess the state of play regarding existing disclosure ac
 tivities\, shed light on their role in meeting the climate targets and dis
 cuss the influence of competing international approaches to standardisatio
 n.
