Sustainable Finance Research Seminar
The sustainable finance research seminar is a place where thought-provoking working papers on the topic of sustainable finance are presented and discussed. In fall 2022, the seminar contains a mix of theoretical and empirical papers by both senior and junior scholars. Key themes include the impact of sustainable finance on the real economy, the implications of climate risks, and investor preferences for sustainability.
FOR DOCTORAL STUDENTS
By passing an oral exam during the exam session, doctoral students earn 3 ECTS. The seminar can be found in the course catalogue of the University of Zurich as DOEC0912.
Based on our last year's experience and the current uncertainties in on-site planning due to the pandemic situation, we are organising the seminar again in an online format on Thursdays at 4.15pm Zurich time.
