The 2nd cohort of HKGFA-HKUST Certificate in Sustainable Finance program commenced on March 18 for three consecutive Saturdays until April 1 at our downtown center in Central and received overwhelming response.

After expanding the program capacity, the 2nd cohort consisted of 56 participants. The majority were banking or finance professionals, while the others were civil servants, consultants, and practitioners in sustainability. The class was very devoted to learning, sparking many enriching dialogues between speakers and participants. Participants also treasured the networking opportunities with peers of shared interest, creating a very positive learning atmosphere.

The program covered all the hot issues in ESG, where academia and industrial experts collaborated seamlessly to lead our participants to explore the topics from different perspectives with case studies. The next cohort will take place in November 2023.
