The Advisers’ Sustainability Group (ASG), recently established by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to develop good practice guidance for financial advisers on sustainability matters, has announced its founding membership.
Chair of the Group, Daniel Godfrey, said: “We have been overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and encouragement we’ve received from all stakeholder groups in the advice ecosystem. In addition to the excellent team that we’ve announced today, we’ve had great conversations with many in the advice community who are keen to help with our work as we get underway.
“The ASG is entirely focused on its mission of developing guidance that helps advisers deliver advice on sustainability matters and leads to better outcomes for consumers.”
Julia Dreblow, vice chair, added: “This group is a phenomenally strong group of individuals. It is intentionally representative of a wide range of adviser, planner and wealth manager interests and views – as well as of the core services advisers rely on.
We are very much looking forward to moving forward as swiftly as possible, and to involving many others who have offered assistance.”
