Call for Candidates

The mission of Ethics & Trust in Finance for a Sustainable Future is to promote greater awareness among young people (under 35) throughout the world of the importance of strengthening ethics and integrity in the finance sector and of accelerating the transition to a sustainable financial system.

At the core of this initiative is the recognition that it is essential to support the commitment of the younger generation entering the world of finance – its future leaders – to strengthen sustainability and ethics in banking and finance and to reinforce their implementation. The Prize also stems from the conviction that it is important to stimulate the academic debate on the sustainable future of the finance sector and insurance, based on strong commitment to ethics and integrity.

The Observatoire de la Finance believes that the issues of ethics and trust in finance have a pivotal role to play in affecting a positive change in the uncertain world. The Observatoire look forward to exploring bright new ideas from a diverse group of brilliant young people.
