This PRI course should become the standardised norm in the wealth management industry. A perfect introduction to responsible investing for all, concise and informative. ESG integration is not only beneficial for clients' long-term investments, but I believe it will eventually become a regulatory requirement.

Going through Foundations in RI made me realise that ESG has to be part of my practice and not considered as something separate. As a portfolio manager, I know now that environmental, societal and corporate governance has to be taken into account as a part of my asset allocation approach.

If you are an investment manager and would like to enhance your understanding regarding ESG valuation, Advanced RI Analysis is a good tool to help with that.

Prosperity has been an active investor and has employed environmental, social and especially corporate governance issues in its investment and engagement processes since its inception. At the same time with growing investors' demand to have all those aspects incorporated into investment managers' regulations, PRI Academy significantly helps to understand the system and structure of ESG analysis so that to describe and formalise respective practices.

After spending a long time integrating ESG issues at the operational level and then at the strategic level of companies, the academy course helped me to understand how to integrate ESG at the investment level. It certainly broadened my horizons. The course includes fundamental understanding of ESG megatrends and strategies as well as real life cases and self-testing.

With a strong interest in responsible investing, coming from the banking sector and joining the engagement and ESG service provider, GES International, it's been important for me to learn more about the responsible investment space and practices. This course has definitely helped me expand my knowledge and take the next steps in my understanding of RI.

I will continue to promote the courses internally and externally as helpful training for anyone looking to expand their knowledge.

The PRI Academy provides a solid foundation in all facets of responsible investment. The practical case studies combined with the module on implementing a responsible investment programme were extremely valuable in helping integrate ESG analysis into the investment decision process.

A fantastic course with plenty of food for thought, suggested starting points and action plans for a hedge fund asset management firm that works hard to foster transparency about our activities in the space.

As a consulting environmental scientist working for decades in the environmental and social aspects of the ESGs - I really enjoyed learning about the corporate governance and financial modeling considerations. The course was very logically laid out and provided very practical advice. I especially appreciated the implementation process and strategies included. I will be recommending this course to employees and colleagues alike.
