Today’s businesses and investors are increasingly dealing with the risks and opportunities of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, due to the scarcity of resources, conflicts in community and labor relations, and climate change. Meanwhile, more and more investment managers have stepped in to offer impact products in their portfolios as investors begin to evaluate how they can invest in ways that can meet financial goals and support social and environmental change. Bridging the gap between traditional capitalism and a new context of shared economic and social value, sustainable and inclusive finance is quickly becoming a core part of the mission of governments, financial institutions and companies globally.

The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Shanghai Advanced Institute of Finance, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Singapore Management University, and Tsinghua University are jointly organizing a two-day forum on sustainable finance in Shenzhen, China on July 13-14, 2019. The Conference Committee encourages submissions of thought-provoking working papers with theoretical, empirical, or methodological and research-design contributions.
