The teaching and research programme of the Chair in Sustainable Finance and Investments, represented by Assistant Professor Dr. Othar Kordsachia, focuses on the principles of sustainable corporate governance and finance, as well as on the effects of sustainability-oriented regulation on companies and capital markets. Particular emphasis is placed on the integration of social and environmental sustainability criteria in financial decisions and on examining different manifestations of sustainability in investment offerings.

 

In these areas, we are also pleased to act as a point of contact for transfer projects with practice.
