GREENING INVESTMENTS & CLIMATE RISK
- Understand the perceptions and motivations of investors and issuers in the green bond market in Sweden. The purpose is to gain a deeper understanding of how the financial sector can catalyze new investments in low-carbon and climate-resilient solutions.
- Investigate how climate risk is currently incorporated into financial decision making (with a focus on Norwegian actors). Here we want to understand how climate science and climate risk can be communicated in ways that meet the needs of institutional investors and asset managers.
