What does SDR stand for?

SDR stands for Sustainable Disclosure Requirements. It was launched by the FCA in May 2024 to establish clarity around sustainable investing at both the product and firm level. MPS providers face increasing threat of accidental or deliberate greenwashing.

Why SDR-Compliant Funds Matter

Regulatory Risk

​Firms that are not compliant with SDR labelling are at risk of misrepresenting sustainability credentials and reputational damage. 

Adviser Responsibility

Advisers must ensure portfolio disclosures and constituent funds genuinely meet SDR criteria.

Investor Trust

Clear SDR compliance supports transparency and mitigates greenwashing concerns in client relationships.
