Policy Brief published on "Sustainable Finance Literacy Training: Impact on Investment Decisions"

We investigated the impact of an educational program on Sustainable Finance Literacy (SFL) and its effect on investment choices.

These effects were stronger among investors with pre-existing green attitudes.
