Amendment 212 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 54 a (new)
(54a) In order to achieve the ambitious targets of the Paris Agreement, a central task for politics and for the private sector will be to finance the energy decarbonisation and the transition to a circular economy in the Union in the coming years. Despite favourable credit conditions at present, and the attractiveness of green assets for investors, supplementary measures are called for. To support the financing of these kinds of green assets, which are held by approximately 70% of financial institutions, it is important to recognise the macroeconomic benefits of these assets, which contribute to minimising the chance of climate-specific risk.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 54 b (new)
(54b) An appropriate regulatory approach for these green assets would create incentives to increase investment in the energy decarbonisation and in the transition to a circular economy and would lead to a greening of the banks´ balance sheets. From a regulatory point of view, therefore, an adjustment to own funds requirements is proposed for the financing of these assets, and for investing in them, and a supporting factor is introduced.
