Sustainable Finance
Sustainable Finance denotes financial systems, services and products that are integrating environmental, social and governance (ESG Criteria) into business and/or investment decisions such that current social, environmental, and livelihood needs are not compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Sustainable finance practices are rapidly evolving:
- Definitions of ESG factors and domains
- Incorporation of sustainability into business strategies
- Governance, policies and risk management applicable to ESG Risks
- ESG and climate-related disclosures
- Green Financial Products
- Engaging financial industry clients to reorient their investment plans to ensure consistency with the Paris Agreement
- Reorienting financial flows away from unsustainable activities
This Collection of Academy courses covers diverse aspects of Sustainable Finance. An important sub-category focuses on Input-Output Economic Models and their role in Sustainable Finance.
