Sustainable Finance

High financial performance with purpose

Currently, several studies show that financial managers operate with a “knowledge gap” when it comes to ESG.   

The challenge is therefore clear: how can asset owners and managers achieve high financial performance by adopting policies, practices and data related to sustainable capitalism?  

The Sustainable Finance program seeks to provide an overview of the global sustainable finance market and its different variations, as well as exploring how financial agents can manage capital and generate value through environmental, social and governance (ESG) data and policies.
