Sustainable Finance Course for financial sector professionals

Claudia has been contracted by Rainforest Foundation Norway to develop an executive education course for Chinese financial sector professions on sustainable finance, with focus on climate and nature.  The objective of the course is to enable mid and senior-level Chinese financial sector professionals to gain new skills and knowledge in the area of sustainable finance, in order to manage risks and support climate and nature-positive goals while maintaining strong financial returns. ´

 

The Sustainable Finance course was based on global best practices, anchored in international frameworks such as the ISSB sustainability disclosure standards, the Task Force on Nature Related Financial Disclosures, and the Global Biodiversity Framework adopted at the 2022 UN Biodiversity Conference chaired by China. 

 

The course had a mix of online and in-person lectures in English and Mandarin. It is being developed in partnership with the University of Edinburgh Business School and the International Institute of Green Finance of the Central University of Finance and Economics in China and was delivered in China and the UK in the summer of 2024.  Guest speakers included specialists from FAIRR, EY, the United Nations Environment Programme, Global Canopy, and the Principles for Responsible Investment.
