ESG investing focuses on sustainability and therefore companies that implement sustainability management and ethical investing in the financial sector are more competitive in the long term.

The learning content is the responsibility of the schools. There may therefore be differences depending on the school.

The following topics/learning content are often covered:

• Definition and terminology of sustainable investing
• Criteria and strategies for investing green
• Sustainable investment products
• The so-called ESG criteria
• Raising awareness of greenwashing
• Right to
• Political discussions on investing money sustainably

For a detailed list of the contents, please contact the provider of your choice directly.

This depends entirely on which target group the sustainable investing training is aimed at. The training courses are often explicitly aimed at client advisors, managers or portfolio managers.

However, some offers have also been specially designed for private individuals. Here you can learn how to invest your money sustainably.

It is best to contact the school of your choice directly and ask.

In principle, anyone who meets the admission requirements of the respective school may take part in a Sustainable Investing course.

For a CAS, for example, a university degree and relevant professional experience are required.

For people without a tertiary degree but with several years of relevant experience, many schools offer the option of admission "sur dossier", i.e. through an individual assessment of their background.

ESG is the abbreviation for environmental, social and governance. The aim of ESG investing is to make financing decisions for companies taking these three areas into account and thus ensure the greatest possible sustainability in controlling.

The duration of a Sustainable Investing course is not standardized and can therefore vary from school to school.

CAS courses usually last one semester. Courses with the school's own certificate usually last a few days and/or weeks.
