About This Item
TS ISO 32210 is a guidance standard for organizations in the financial sector on how to apply sustainability principles to financing activities. In the sustainable finance context, the focus is not only on providing capital, but also on considering environmental, social and governance-related effects, stakeholder expectations, and the organization’s own priorities in a structured way.
A framework for applying sustainability in finance
The standard provides general guidance on sustainability principles, practices and terminology for organizations active in the financial sector. Its scope includes direct lenders and investors, asset managers, and service providers. It is also relevant to other parties connected with sustainable finance, such as providers or recipients of sustainable finance, government organizations, public and private sector institutions, business entities, industry associations, financial market regulators, and supervisory and control bodies.
Why terminology and materiality matter
Applying sustainability principles in finance depends on using terminology consistently and on identifying what is material in a transparent way. In this context, materiality involves both the organization’s perspective and the perspective of its stakeholders. As general technical context, this helps organizations assess risks, opportunities, and impacts more coherently; the standard itself does not narrow the topic to a single financial product type or one prescribed implementation model.
