the "E" factors are still more prevalent than the "S" and "G" ones: #environment is the top-of-mind area, notes @SPizzoglio @doxa_research#settimanaSRI #sustainablefinance #SMEs #impinv #sri #esg pic.twitter.com/Z4eoTB1OGu

#SMEs and #sustainablefinance: in terms of supply of sustainable finance products/services, or more precisely of financial products/services for sustainable projects/activities, there's room for improvement, Italian #SMEs are quite dissatisfied for noe#settimanaSRI #sri #esg pic.twitter.com/y35Tdgmkfo

info & comm are key
Italian #SMEs ask for more #information and #communication on #sustainablefinance w/ regard to products, services, tools, benefits #settimanaSRI #sustainablefinance #SMEs #impinv #sri #esg pic.twitter.com/ktwOprhSXf

#ESG are more often perceived as #environmental issues, but they're not only about the environment, #socialissues are important as well, says @a_delgiudice, adding that we need more clarity and common definitions in the #sustainablefinance space #settimanaSRI #SMEs #impinv #sri pic.twitter.com/TYrd4shYyo

✅ change is key, we need to change to face the challenges of our times
✅ #sustainability is a competitive advantage
✅ w/out sustainability, there's a risk of declining

now Andrea Benassi from @gruppoiccrea making his speech: we're trying to make #sustainability become the 'colour' of our bank, we're not interested in having a range of 'sustainable' products, we want to make it a cross-sectional issue #SettimanaSRI #sustainablefinance pic.twitter.com/qJz4ToN0Zt

there's a big amount of money looking for sustainable investment opportunities, look at #greenbonds that are flying off the shelves, and it's likely to increase, #SMEs now must develop the ability to tap this big flow, says @A_DelGiudice #settimanaSRI #sustainablefinance pic.twitter.com/WBn43kJsW5
— Sri Event (@SriEvent) November 11, 2020
for banks sometimes it's more convenient to finance 'brown' companies than 'green' ones, this seems like an oxymoron, notes Benassi (implying that this must change, in brief it's a nonsense)#settimanaSRI #sustainablefinance #SMEs #impinv #sri #esg pic.twitter.com/jQBtYyJ08t
