Joint Submission – Sustainable Investment Product Labelling Regime – Consultation Paper

Joint Submission

Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ), CPA Australia, the Institute of Public Accountants (IPA) and the SMSF Association (the Joint Associations) welcome the
opportunity to provide this submission to the Treasury Consultation on Sustainable Investment Product Labelling Regime.


We welcome the development of a framework that provides transparency and consistency
across financial products marketed as sustainable (or similar) to help investors more easily
understand and compare the merits of different sustainable investment options.


It is important that there is a balance between standardising practices, while also allowing
flexibility to adapt in response to investment needs and product innovation. Further the outputs of the framework must be easily understood by the investor and comparable from one product to another.
