Sustainable Finance

The Sustainable Finance profile combines financial principles with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations. You learn how to make financial decisions that promote long-term value creation while addressing sustainability challenges such as climate change, social inequality, and corporate ethics.

You study how to assess and integrate ESG factors into financial models, investment decisions, and corporate strategies. Examples include:

• green bonds funding renewable energy projects,

• ESG-focused investment portfolios,

• carbon trading markets,

• impact investing to generate social and environmental benefits,
  and financing aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

These initiatives drive responsible investment and address global challenges like climate change and social inequality. 

After your studies
