ESMA's Board of Supervisors delegates to the Chair the adoption of refusal decisions on the registration of small ESG rating providers under the temporary regime of the ESG Rating Regulation (EU) 2024/3005, to speed up a high volume of files.
Who is affected
Small ESG rating providers seeking to operate in the EU under the temporary regime.
Deadlines
In force from the day after adoption (27 August 2026), for an indefinite period.
Plain-language version
ESMA, the EU's stock market watchdog, now lets its chair directly refuse registration to small ESG rating providers, firms that score how sustainable and responsible a company is. There are many applications, and this speeds things up. These ratings are used to pick 'sustainable' investments, so it matters that the firms issuing them are properly checked. The measure is already in force.
