Sustainable Finance

After a major conference on the report of the High Level Expert Group on Sustainable Finance in Berlin, organized by DIW Berlin together with the European Commission and the "Hub for Sustainable Finance" on 22.2 in Berlin, we sat down with a few interested colleagues from various institutions in the field of sustainable finance and decided that it would be a good idea to have a "place" to discuss the research and analysis, needed to support the successful implementation of the EU Action Plan.

The aim of the research meeting is an open, informal exchange to promote the discourse on "sustainable finance" from a research perspective and to work together constructively on the basis of our different research fields and experiences. The informal discussion in a small group allows interactive and open discussions.
