Source:  The background to this is that the current version of the taxonomy only covers the activities of companies in sectors that account for more than 90 % of direct greenhouse gas emissions in Europe.
 Given the current status of the EUT, it would be a misinterpretation of the EUT to regard economic activities that are noneligible for the taxonomy per se as nonsustainable in the overall context.
 Possible future incorrect interpretations can be increasingly countered by expanding the taxonomy to include the other four environmental goals, including the addition of further economic activities.
 Legislation is expected to be published on the criteria of the four other environmental targets by the end of 2022.
 Risk management also provides the basis for achieving our goal of reporting in accordance with the recommendations of the TCFD (Task Force on ClimateRelated Financial Disclosures) in the next few years.
