A growing feature of global markets for many products and services is voluntary sustainability standards and certification. This is making the sustainability standards sector a rapidly expanding and complex space. The sheer number of standard systems, stakeholders and organizations appears to increase by the day. With these changes in global markets come increasing needs and expectations as well as responsibilities. Effective sustainability standards need to deliver on their economic, environmental and social objectives and sustainable finance in its many guises is fundamentally tied in to their success. This course provides a detailed examination of voluntary sustainability standards and their intricately linked relationship to sustainable finance.

As the real prices of non-renewable energy sources continues to rise, the attractiveness of renewable energy steadily increases. But financing remains complex, with regulatory and legal hurdles, and a wide range of potential funding sources, combined with a number of government incentives providing anything but a level playing field. This course is designed to provide a good grounding for bankers of the renewable and alternative energy market, and the why and how of its debt and equity financing, concentrating throughout on the due diligence and skills required by bankers aiming to finance this technically complex but still growing area. The course focuses on the market and how it is financed, focusing on project finance concepts and their applicability to renewable and energy finance.
