Sustainable Finance

The financial industry has now integrated sustainability into his core, but too little corporations are really engaged, considering the sustainable finance gap to be filled for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Beyond learning how to tackle sustainable issues into financial systems, you will learn how to transform strategies, decisions and support companies to move towards impact assessment and measurement. You will receive learnings entirely dedicated to the ecological realities, in order manage better your future financial actions. The deepen ecological values transmitted by our staff and faculty will allow you to imagine the desirable realities you want to interact in, and to promote it.

The values of our faculty, anchored into the ecological finance theory developed at KEDGE Business School, will allow to receive innovative learnings and experiences, integrating degrowth/postgrowth debates, and cutting-edge course and learnings as ecological accounting, sustainable monetary systems, alternative money and finance, sustainable governance, anthropology of finance, energy and climate issues, etc. This way of learning, experimenting by yourself in projects such as the “Make your Impact Challenge”, is aligned with the ‘learning-by-doing’ KEDGE’s Philosophy.

This MSc is supported by a privileged network of more than 50 companies and hundreds of alumni engaged into sustainable, ecological and impact finance.
