# ESG Update July 2026

This monthly briefing tracks major sustainability governance developments, including EU regulators (ESMA, EBA, EIOPA) proposing to simplify EU Taxonomy disclosure requirements with consultations open until 12 August 2026, and KPMG research showing most companies still lack tools to connect sustainability to financial value. It also notes a sharp rebound in labelled sustainable bond issuance and new social-related disclosure frameworks. For boards, it underscores the ongoing shift toward outcome-focused ESG oversight and the need to link sustainability data credibly to value creation and compliance monitoring.
