The Oxford Sustainable Finance Programme at the University of Oxford and the International Institute of Green Finance at the Central University of Finance and Economics (CUFE) in Beijing are undertaking a joint research project entitled ‘The Green Performance Premium (GPP): Examining historical green asset performance and the contribution of ESG-practices to micro- and macro-economic performance’. This is funded by the UK Government.

 

As part of the project we are hosting a workshop at the Oxford Martin School, University of Oxford on 3rd September 2019 from 14:00-15:30.

 

As part of the project we are preparing two papers. The first paper examines the default risk of green bank loans. The second research paper investigates the hypothesis that micro-economic performance improvements from the adoption of ESG-related practices could influence macro-economic performance.

 

We would like to take this opportunity to disseminate early findings, collect inputs from stakeholders, and enhance further collaborations in this area.
