Sustainable Finance
Sustainable finance involves integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into investment and credit decisions to ensure ethical decision making by asset owners, asset managers, banks, and companies. Environmental factors can include climate and nature related risks, biodiversity protection, pollution prevention, and circular economy practices. Social considerations address issues like diversity, gender, labor relations, human rights, and community relations. And in the context of ESG, governance encompasses issues like management structures, transparency, employee relations and executive compensation.
In our sustainable finance work, we provide advisory services and training to financial sector professionals in ESG global best practices, taking into account regulatory and operational issues throughout the value chain, with a view to ensure sound risk management and strong financial returns.
