CFA UK launches ESG qualification
CFA UK has launched the first, formal ESG qualification in the UK for investment professionals.
The Certificate in ESG Investing is a response to the demand for deeper ESG knowledge and skills across the investment sector, while also providing greater transparency to investors.
“It provides the benchmark knowledge and tools for practitioners to enable them to understand the different approaches investment professionals can take when considering ESG, through differing data sets and methodologies,” Christina Curtin, director of education at CFA UK told The Drawdown.
