Welcome to the Sustainable Investments research programme!

In a world with more and more environmental and social challenges, companies with capabilities to turn these challenges into business opportunities are more likely to be the winners of tomorrow. The financial sector is currently gaining a strong interest in these issues. As institutional investors increasingly assess and value companies on their environmental, social and governance performance, this trigger companies in all sectors to take more actions in line with sustainable development, a development that “meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. As sustainability is a new area for institutional investors, there is a need for more knowledge and tools in order to integrate these issues into the investment processes. The Sustainable Investment research programme intends to fulfil this need.

On this website you will find information about the research that is carried out within the Sustainable Investments research programme.
