ISF Certification Program
ESG CERTIfication for finance professionals
Over $37 trillion in assets under management claim to incorporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations into their investing strategy. Despite the difficulties of working with incomplete data sets, portfolio managers must assess the impact of a company’s ESG aspects with skill. Furthermore, investors and regulators must manage growing skepticism of ESG claims, attempting to distinguish the green from the greenwash. They’re caught in a conundrum, having to satisfy growing shareholder demand for returns on sustainable and value-driven portfolios while competing against benchmark funds that solely look at short-term performance.
The ISF® certification program for Financial Professionals is an amazing interaction between IASE’s renowned financial competence with the innovative ESG research undertaken by the prominent IASE faculty. As a result, investment professionals now have a powerful, actionable toolkit for implementing, measuring, modeling, and optimizing ESG-asset integration in their portfolios for long-term value creation.
The ISF® CERTIFICATION PROGRAM establishes 3 distinct levels of competence – ISF ADVISOR®, ISF SPECIALIST®, and ISF EXPERT®. Competency-based ESG certification program is developed along similar standards as the ISO/IEC 17024 Standard for certifying the competence of professionals.
