Launch of the Competence Center for Sustainable Finance and Private Wealth (CCSP-HSG)

We are delighted to announce the launch of the Competence Center for Sustainable Finance and Private Wealth (CCSP-HSG) at the Swiss Institute of Banking and Finance (SBF-HSG).

We warmly welcome Falko Paetzold as the new Managing Director of the Competence Center. With extensive experience in sustainable finance, Falko has worked with leading institutions such as Harvard University, MIT Sloan, and the University of Zurich, where he founded the Center for Sustainable Finance and Private Wealth.

The CCSP-HSG focuses on advancing research into the effectiveness and best practices of sustainable investing, providing education ranging from university teaching to executive programs for wealth holders and managers, and fostering global networks that bring together investors, entrepreneurs, researchers, and practitioners.

We look forward to the positive impact this new initiative will bring to our university community and beyond. Our sincere thanks go to Markus Schmid for making this initiative possible and to Julian Kölbel for his valuable contribution as a member of the academic board.
