Greenwashing and Consumer Protection Guidance Note

The Isle of Man Financial Services Authority issued this guidance to ensure regulated firms manage sustainability-related claims without misleading consumers or investors. The document outlines five core principles requiring that claims be correct, clear, complete, fair, and aligned with corporate strategy. It emphasizes that existing governance frameworks must address greenwashing risks, including litigation, reputational damage, and consumer harm, without imposing new legislative requirements.
