IFS Malta is excited to announce that it will be offering the highly anticipated Award in Environmental Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) course in partnership with the University of Malta. Scheduled to take place from October 2024 to February 2025, the course will feature three-hour lectures on Thursdays between 5.30pm and 8.30 pm at the University of Malta. The delivery of lectures will be in hybrid form and lectures will be recorded for students’ convenience. This presents a valuable opportunity to invest in your professional development.

Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) has become one of the most influential and widespread business concepts in recent years, driven by public policy and increasing societal demands for improved corporate accountability.

This course will explore the key issues surrounding ESG today, as well as the emerging opportunities and risks implicated by such considerations. Additionally, the program will cover the relevant regulatory requirements and standards related to ESG, which have gained prominence globally, particularly within the European Union in recent years. Furthermore, it will focus on ESG reporting, disclosure, and ratings for businesses, with a special emphasis on investments and financial services operators.

The objective of this course is to provide students with a critical evaluation of the most pertinent emerging ESG issues, opportunities, and risks in the global business landscape. Moreover, students will gain a comprehensive understanding of the significance of ESG within today’s corporate environment, including regulatory and reporting requirements in this respect.
