COURSE OVERVIEW

Meeting SDGs by 2030 has become imperative. Redeploying capital towards positively impacting SDGs has been set as our industry’s societal mandate. Asset owners and asset managers currently face more questions than answers on where to begin to achieve an investment strategy that aligns with the Paris Accords-aligned goal of a net-zero carbon (NZC) economy by 2050.

The simple question of how to deliver on that promise leads to all manner of challenging answers. The course is designed to provide a clear understanding of the evidence-based capital redeployment towards SDGs as an entrepreneurial exercise of creative and critical thinking.

• How to begin?
• Are there any existing solutions that would allow an investor to at least start down the road to achieving an NZC portfolio by 2050?
• Would these solutions for instance compromise the fiduciary duties to its beneficiaries?
