Paul Smeets “Finance in motion”
Working with Paul Smeets, coordinator of the course Responsible and Sustainable Investments, part of the master's program in Sustainable Finance at the University of Maastricht, representatives from Finance in Motion charged the class with developing an idea for a development fund that tackles a social or environmental problem. As part of the “FiMovation” project, the students were asked to provide and analyze the investment thesis, potential investees, the geographic focus and the target investors, and then address feasibility, scalability and innovative factors.
