In a publication dated August 3, 2022, BaFin referred to the now applicable obligation of investment advisors and financial portfolio managers to conduct customer exploration with regard to the sustainability preferences of customers.
BaFin points out that it will closely monitor the implementation of the new regulations and – where necessary – request securities companies to make improvements. Compliance with the new regulations will also be examined in the annual audit under the German Securities Trading Act.
