The staggering pace of demand for environmental, social and governance (ESG) expertise amid scarce candidates has led to a demand-supply mismatch globally. In Singapore, there has been a recent surge in ESG courses to develop a suitable pipeline of talent here. For example, the new Singapore Green Finance Centre [an initiative of SMU and Imperial College Business School], backed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, offers courses across various levels – undergraduate, post-graduate, continuing and professional education. SMU's Advanced Certificate in Sustainability and Sustainable Businesses course – which costs up to S$10,272 for international participants – has been fully subscribed till March 2022.
