Climate change, geopolitical events, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and as consequences, spiking energy prices, and volatile markets, shape today’s macroeconomic landscape politicians and companies seek to navigate. This session gathers academics and industry experts to address how the rapid changes in global energy markets may affect the macroeconomy, how to use financial instruments to hedge energy-price volatility, and how to optimally design energy markets.

The event is free and open to the public as its part of the official ONS program and will be of particular interest to international business leaders, the research community, officials, non-governmental organizations, and the public.

Kjell Jørgensen og Geir Høidal Bjønnes jobber begge med forskning og undervisning ved Institutt for Finans ved Handelshøyskolen BI. I podcastserien Finans i Fjæra tar de opp ulike spørsmål knyttet til finansfaget hvor bærekraftig finans er et viktig tema som diskuteres. Selv om bærekraft også handler om sosiale forhold og styring, så er miljøutfordringene verden står overfor svært viktige.

Navnet «Finans i Fjæra» spiller på den tidligere kulturfestivalen «Føling i Fjæra» på Hankø der Harald Schwarz og Ari Behn var sentrale. I et innlegg i NRK fortalte Harald Zwart at: «Føling i fjæra er blitt en kjempeklisje i norsk film, det er litt sånn når det står stille i norsk film går vi ned i fjæra og føler litt». Mange vil sikkert hevde at slik er det ofte også med bærekraft. Politikere og andre prater mye om miljø, men det skjer ikke så mye i praksis. I podcastserien settes søkelyset på hva finansnæringen, selskaper og politikere faktisk gjør i bærekraftspørsmål, og hva som skjer framover.
