Workshop of the Career Service in collaboration with Management Solutions.

Concern about the sustainable economy and climate change has come to the forefront of the collective global consciousness. Social movements lead to an increase in demand for sustainable products and increase the reputational risk suffered by certain sectors that are perceived to be responsible for climate change, as well as by the entities that finance them. Accordingly, the aim of this workshop is to provide the participants with an overview of the ESG principals and the effects that banking industry is experiencing from the admission and reporting. As well as practical insights about the risks and opportunities.

The Workshop will be done mainly in English and German
