Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing is a rapidly growing practice within the institutional investment field that aims to account for non-financial factors when analyzing the overall value of an organization or investment. Investors are incorporating ESG analyses into the investment process to gain a fuller understanding of the companies in which they invest.
In 2022, CFA Institute began offering the Certificate in ESG Investing as a global credential within its suite of prestigious certifications and designations.
Earning the ESG certification demonstrates your knowledge and use of environmental, social, and governance factors in institutional investment analysis. The certificate is designed for investment practitioners who want to learn more about how to analyze and integrate material ESG factors into their day-to-day roles. It is suitable for anyone working in front or back offices and adjacent roles, as well as anyone looking to improve their understanding of ESG issues.
