The EDHEC Speaker Series “The Future of Finance”, has garnered an inclusive audience of students, researchers, and finance professionals.

On November 14, 2023, EDHEC Business School will host Laurens Swinkels, Executive Director, and Head of Quant Strategies at Robeco Sustainable Multi-Asset Solutions who will deliver a talk on Sustainable Bond Investing.

He will cover the differences and similarities of different types of sustainable bonds, their pricing and expected returns compared to conventional bonds
He will also address the risks of greenwashing.

These insights can help investors with their decision whether to include sustainable bonds in their portfolios.
