The Sustainable Financial Analytics programme aims to integrate sustainability in the financial analyses of companies and investment portfolios. Where traditional finance focuses on financial valuation, this programme investigates risks as well as opportunities from recognizing sustainability.

The Sustainable Financial Analytics programme retains a practical and applied approach, and the student will be equipped with a deeper and more fundamental understanding of the dilemmas that arise where financial analyses meet sustainability.

As a student you will explore methods and skills that enable you to include ESG in well-founded financial analyses. The benefits are many, particularly as this is a field where the need for essential ESG-information faces many challenges due to a general lack of standards and the very speed with which this field has developed.

The programme is offered in collaboration with the Finance Society Norway, FFN.
