ESG, SUSTAINABLE FINANCE AND THE FUNDING FOR THE GREEN TRANSITION

The green transition poses a significant challenge in today’s world. Uncertainties of environmental regulations and the growing attention to accountability and transparency regarding organizations ́ efforts on environmental, social, and economic (ESG) performance have required an expansion of business relationships beyond those conventional ones with stockholders.

In this context, decision-makers must understand how to create or destroy value for various stakeholders based on environmental and social challenges. There is a need to redesign the way of doing business, invest in new technologies and infrastructure, and divest stranded assets.

Firm valuation is increasingly reflecting both the positive and negative impacts of sustainability practices. The financial market plays a pivotal role in funding environmental and social projects and advancing the corporate social responsibility agenda. It will be necessary to design creative solutions to finance many of the required innovations and actions.

This course focuses on identifying risks and opportunities for creating shared value and promotes reflection about concepts and tools that can be used in financial strategies and investments that create value for society.

It is part of the MBA International Week, which is a short-term program designed to provide students with a unique opportunity to expand their knowledge and skills in various topics of the business world in classes with international and Insper professors.
