“In Asia, while financial institutions in the region have made notable progress in this realm over the past few years, many still have large gaps in their ESG policies, client engagement processes and approaches to portfolio risk management that leave their portfolios vulnerable to risks arising from climate change and nature loss,” says Anders Nordheim, senior vice president of Asia sustainable finance at WWF-Singapore.
Finance professionals can now learn about sustainable finance through online courses backed by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Singapore and the Asia Sustainable Finance Initiative (ASFI).
WWF-Singapore and ASFI launched today the ASFI Academy, a suite of e-learning courses designed for those working in the Asian financial sector.
