We are Germany’s leading Sustainable Finance Think Tank - and we decided to do “whatever it takes” to make financial markets work for the sustainable transition.
We accompany agents of change in politics, finance, business, science and environmental action on their way to shifting investments towards sustainable development. Be it for biodiversity protection and restoration of ecosystems, tackling the climate crisis, or halting deforestation - with sound data evidence, solid regulatory analysis and strategic policy recommendations we help decision makers in connecting the dots and bridging the gaps between finance, policy and the environment.

It is obvious that gigantic sums of money are needed to reach our climate and sustainable development goals. Yet, politicians, authorities, industry and the financial market rarely speak the same language. If we want to make the green transformation happen, we need to stop thinking in ‘finance’ and ‘environment’ silos. We need to team up. Ingmar JuergensCo-Founder and CEO of Climate & Company
Financing sustainable land use to protect biodiversity
Closing the "ESG data gap": we develop data solutions for financial institutions to understand and manage biodiversity, climate and other environmental risks and impacts in their investment decisions.
How to finance the green economy?
Governments are tasked with reaching ambitious climate, biodiversity and sustainable development goals. We help policy-makers to get the most out of sustainable finance for real "green" impact on the ground.
Understanding the EU green finance rulebook
Disclosure, taxonomies and due diligence: we are your experts from the EU engine room to help you use and shape the complex regulatory framework for sustainable finance.
Making sustainable finance rules work beyond borders
Financial markets are global: we accompany decision-makers to explore and expand the common ground for sustainable finance regulation, building on UN, G20 and other international institutions.
We help you see "the big picture" on sustainability, finance and policy.
The sustainable transition is not only about climate change, but also about biodiversity loss, land-use, forest and water protection, human rights and social justice. With our 20+ years of insider knowledge from the corridors of national governments, the EU, the OECD, the UN, public banks and leading think-tanks, we help you understand what drives regulators, politicians, finance experts and entrepreneurs in the sustainability challenge. In our seminars, policy briefs, recommendations and guidance documents, we develop solutions for the breadth of the systemic crisis we are facing – backed up with data, analysis, context - and loads of positive energy.
