Infocus International Group, a global business intelligence provider of strategic information and professional services, has launched a brand new online masterclass – ESG & Sustainable Finance which will be commencing live on 4 April 2022. 

There is no question the future of financial services is Sustainable Finance. Be it investment, lending and mortgages, be it private equity and trade finance – no asset class out there is untouched of questions such as: “what is the carbon intensity of this investment?”, “what is the financial climate risk in financing this project?”, or “how can we create ESG-linked products for our customers?”. Both customers and regulators demand financial institutions to report on ESG (environmental, social and governmental) indicators and analysis. We are here to help you navigate the ESG jungle!

You will learn how ESG and Sustainable Finance affects your business from a regulatory and a customer viewpoint. Understand the strategic implications of ESG and Sustainable Finance on the financial industry and learn how technology offers competitive advantages in transforming into a sustainability-driven organisation. Regardless of your role this course will teach you the business requirements on Sustainable Finance, giving you the confidence to lead meaningful conversations across your business.

Anna from Italy shared that, “Trainer is simply excellent. Thanks to his clarity, very complex issues become easy and understandable to the great satisfaction of trainees. I go back very often to the notes of that seminar and find them at any time clear and useful.”

“I have attended a number of courses conducted by the trainer over the past few years. I have learnt a great deal – he is an excellent lecturer; not only is he technically sound, he would ensure that the content of his courses are kept up-to-date with case studies which are relevant to the current market environment. His classes are never dull and he always keeps the participants engaged,” said Kingston from Singapore.
