Sustainable Investing
Sustainability is more than just a trend - this also applies to financial investments. Whether private or institutional, the market for green shares, bonds, and incentive loans is growing. This is not only due to social developments, but also to political measures such as the Green Deal, which aims to make Europe climate-neutral by 2050. Sustainability, however, also includes - within the framework of ESG - social and governance-related aspects. True experts are needed for all of this.

What Others Say
Sebastian Merken, Senior Coverage Specialist Wholesale

Why did you participate in the Sustainable Investing program?
“I was looking for further training in the area of sustainability and was interested in a combination of purely theoretical knowledge and relevant practical aspects.”
Were your expectations of the program’s content met? What did you like about it?
“Yes, absolutely. I found the selection of lecturers particularly positive - a successful combination of people with strong academic backgrounds as well as people with clear practical relevance, and the wide range of topics across the eight modules.”
What are your key learnings from the Sustainable Investing program?
“There are still uncertainties around regulation and interpretation, e.g. at the country level, but we are able to act and must continue to make our clients aware of the topic and its necessity. ESG is not only about the environment. Social and governance aspects will become more important and continue to gain momentum. Sustainability is a trend that is here to stay. Impact-oriented solutions are becoming increasingly important.”
"This certificate is characterized by a close integration of practical experience with current scientific findings. In the joint DVFA and TUM course, participants not only gain a comprehensive insight into current trends in the field of sustainable investing, but also learn practical tools: This allows companies and projects to be directly assessed for sustainability and investment opportunities to be analyzed."
