CCSF zooms in and zooms out – it scrutinises global economic structures, individuals, companies, cultures, laws, and regulations, and proposes solutions for industry and society.

It is widely recognised that climate change implies risks and opportunities for finance and the economy as a whole. Yet, climate-related financial risks pose new fundamental challenges for academics and practitioners in finance. The 2020 edition of the FINEXUS Conference will present state-of-the-art research and discuss the current challenges and the successful applications to policy and practice.
