Launch of an Initiative in Sustainable Finance

This event marked the launch of an Initiative in Sustainable Finance at the London School of Economics and Political Science, introduced by Professor Lord Nicholas Stern and Professor Amil Dasgupta, which is being established under the new LSE Global School of Sustainability. 

To celebrate the launch there was a keynote lecture from Dirk Jenter, Professor of Finance at LSE, on the paper Sustainable Investing: Evidence from the Field, which won the UN PRI Best Academic Paper award 2024. A practitioner discussion of the paper and audience Q&A was facilitated by Tom Gosling, Professor in Practice and the recently appointed Director of the Initiative.
