Live Online Sustainability Strategy and Financial Decision-Making Training Course
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Nov 16, 2026 · from USD 800
Green commitments mean little until they shape budgets, investment cases and the way capital is allocated across the business. Five days connect sustainability priorities to financial value, showing how resource efficiency, regulation, carbon pricing and customer demand affect revenue, costs and the cost of capital. You analyse risks and opportunities through scenario analysis, sensitivity testing and the financial effects of climate transition and physical risks. Investment sessions apply sustainability criteria to capital budgeting, using adjusted NPV, internal carbon prices and multi-criteria assessment to rank projects.
Planning and performance work builds sustainability targets into budgets, forecasts and KPIs, so progress is managed like any other financial objective. The closing day covers strategic implementation, governance and how to present sustainability-linked decisions to boards and investors. Exercises use a company case in which participants evaluate competing projects and defend a recommended capital plan. CFOs, finance managers, financial analysts, strategy and planning staff and sustainability managers who work alongside finance teams will see their daily work reflected in the cases. Afterwards you can quantify the financial case for sustainability initiatives and weigh them fairly against conventional investments.
