DESCRIPTION:
Columbia University’s Earth Institute, home to the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, a world-renowned Earth and climate science research center, is collaborating with leading global investment management firm AllianceBernstein L.P. (AB) to create a first-of-its-kind intensive curriculum focused on climate risk and investment performance.
Scientific experts from Lamont-Doherty and leading finance professionals at AB will co-develop a new curriculum, “Climate Science and Portfolio Risk,” after identifying the need for an educational, research-based program to integrate a deeper analysis of how climate change implications can affect economic and financial outcomes.
