Sustainability has become both a key challenge and an opportunity for companies – especially for financial institutions. 

For banks, insurance companies and other financial services providers, ESG has long been more than just a reputational or marketing topic: it impacts capital flows, risk assessments, business models and regulatory requirements. Institutions that do not take sufficient account of ESG aspects are in danger of underestimating financial risks, coming under regulatory pressure or missing out on market opportunities.

The ESG certificate course provides participants with an in-depth overview of the requirements of the three ESG dimensions, their economic and regulatory relevance and their impact on strategic decisions. All this is rounded off with specific recommendations for implementation.

The course is aimed at specialist staff and executives from the financial sector who wish to live up to the growing demands in the context of ESG.
