Why focus on environmental protection?
Through the Greenfin label, the government recognizes financial investments that directly contribute to the energy and ecological transition. AFNOR Certification is one of the organizations accredited by COFRAC to award this label to investment funds that meet these rigorous criteria.
Formerly known as the TEEC label (Energy and Ecological Transition for the Climate), the GREENFIN label is issued by the Ministry of Ecological and Solidarity Transition, which created it following the Energy Transition for Green Growth Act (LTECV) of August 2015. It is based on four main criteria:
The sector of activity. Only eight sectors are eligible for this label: energy, construction, waste management, industry, clean transportation, information and communication technologies, climate change adaptation, and agriculture and forestry.
Exclusions. Certain activities that are incompatible with the concept of energy and ecological transition, or that are controversial, are excluded from labeled funds, such as the nuclear sector and fossil fuel exploration.
Consideration of ESG criteria. Investment funds must actively monitor environmental (E), social (S), and governance (G) factors throughout the portfolio’s lifecycle.
Positive impact on the energy and ecological transition. The candidate fund must have established a mechanism to measure the actual contribution of its investments to the energy and ecological transition and be able to provide evidence of its actions.
