Sustainable Finance Research Platform
Wissenschaftsplattform Sustainable Finance
The Sustainable Finance Research Platform is a network of five German research institutions (University of Augsburg, DIW Berlin, Frankfurt School of Finance and Management, Universität Hamburg, and University of Kassel) that have been conducting intensive research on sustainable finance for many years.
The aim of the platform is to provide scientific support in answering key social, political and private sector questions, to provide established and emerging knowledge and to play an advisory role in the political and public discourse. In this context, the platform also supports the work of the Sustainable Finance Committee of the German Federal Government by providing research-based inputs, feedback and a critical evidence-based perspective. In addition, the platform aims at establishing sustainable finance as an important theme in the German research landscape, while ensuring close links with European and international institutions and processes.
