Activity: Membership › Membership of network

Description

Macquarie University has joined the Global Research Alliance for Sustainable Finance and Investment (GRASFI) ‐ a new network of global research universities established to promote multidisciplinary academic research on sustainable finance and investment. GRASFI consists of global research universities, each with expertise in this emerging field. Macquarie University is GRASFI’s 20th member, and the first member university from Australia. A particular focus will be on the development of graduate students and junior academics working on
sustainable finance and investment. High‐quality, rigorous academic research can inform necessary developments in the theory and practice of sustainable finance and investment. Doing so will help align the financial system with global environmental sustainability, a necessary condition for implementation of the Paris Climate Change Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals.

The alliance consists of the following universities:
 University of California, Berkeley
 University of Cambridge
 Central University of Finance and Economics (CUFE)
