Use the tools of finance and investing to make a meaningful shift to a more sustainable future
The challenges facing our world are urgent and complex. In the case of climate change, they are ultimately existential. Investors have an unprecedented and powerful role to play in arresting climate change and addressing the manifold issues threatening people and planet; but only if business leaders start making better decisions about how to finance their organisations, how to manage the trade-offs involved and how to better integrate purpose and profit.
To make this happen, you need a new understanding of where investors and industry needs to focus, and how to transition to sustainable finance. You need a new understanding of finance and investment as the drivers of change. And you need new tools, models and frameworks that you can easily and effectively deploy to make the shift to more sustainable practices through ESG investing.
Sustainable Finance and Impact Investing is a ground-breaking programme that fully leverages the research and thought leadership of LSE’s Department of Finance. This is a programme that simultaneously gives you the big-picture understanding, the frameworks and the resources you need to make a quantum shift in how you manage the trade-offs, and build towards a better future through responsible investing. You will master how sustainable finance and impact investing shapes capital allocation, firm behaviour. And you will walk away with the toolkit to lead change, and build towards a brighter tomorrow today.
