EC call for evidence on amendments to Delegated Regulation under Taxonomy Regulation

The European Commission (EC) has published a call for evidence on a draft Commission Delegated Regulation amending Commission Delegated Regulation 2021/2178 in relation to the simplification of the content and presentation of information to be disclosed concerning environmentally sustainable activities. The draft also proposes amendments to Commission Delegated Regulations 2021/2139 and 2023/2486 as regards simplification of certain technical screening criteria for determining whether economic activities cause no significant harm to environmental objectives. The proposals in the Draft Regulation include a 10% de minimis threshold and excluding from the denominator of the key performance indicators (KPIs) exposures of financial institutions to undertakings with an average number of over 1000 employees until the Commission's review of Delegated Regulation 2021/2178 is finalised. The application of the trading book and the fees and commission KPIs is also postponed until 2027. The EC also proposes to simplify templates such as summary KPIs and 'per activity' information to no longer duplicate elements that are covered by general reporting templates. The call for evidence closes on 26 March.

The EC has also published two omnibus proposals on sustainability and EU investments.
