At a Glance
Sustainable Finance is an area that requires decisive leadership, flexibility, and responsiveness from the financial services sector, and society as a collective. This programme is for all financial services professionals who wish to understand more about the evolving nature of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors within financial services.

The programme also examines non-financial disclosures, climate and sustainability reporting including climate related risks, opportunities and financial impacts.

The programme concludes by discussing how to embed a culture of sustainability within an organisation, and an assessment of the future of the ESG agenda.
