Leading and Implementing Sustainable Finance (P.Grad. Cert.)

Course Overview

The programme addresses the growing need to finance business growth and development in a sustainable manner. Such is the pace of regulatory development in the area of sustainable finance and corporate reporting that leaders in financial services and business must ensure they are sufficiently skilled and informed to act as guardians of financial, as well environmental and social, capital. Sustainable finance is acknowledged as having a key role to play in delivering on the policy objectives under the European green deal and the EU’s international commitments on climate and sustainability objectives. Yet, a shortage of relevant specific skills even at executive level may impede the transition to a low-carbon, more resource-efficient and sustainable economy. This programme serves this demand consistent with the TBS strategy to promote and support business for good.
