In the last edition of the magazine International Investor, Grégoire Bordier outlines what financial institutes can do to align financial flows with the objectives of the Paris Agreement and the framework conditions that Switzerland sets up to help them do so. The fact remains that the direct impact on the climate comes from the companies themselves, which have to adapt their activities.

The ASPB is in favour of the exension to the automatic exchange of information (AEOI) to 12 new countries and territories from next year, but three conditions will have to be met before data can be sent for the first time: each country must be prepared to practise the AEOI and to guarantee the security of data it will receive, and manifest its interest in receiving data from Switzerland.

In the « Tribune de Genève », the President of the ASPB insists on the necessity to find a long term solution for cross border workers in Geneva, in order to avoid for their employers to be submitted to French fiscal obligations from the first teleworking day, what conducts the employers to refuse teleworking to their employees. In « Bilan », the director of the ASPB also develops the consequences of the teleworking on the municipalities.
