Geofinance

[Translate to English:] GF

We explore the intersection of finance, environment, and politics. The Geofinance unit aims to improve our understanding of how politics and environmental factors shape financial systems—and vice versa. Our research focuses on historical and contemporary issues in the context of the low-carbon energy transition (e.g., Green Swans) and the study of global financial centers such as New York, London, and Tokyo. We analyze the trajectory of these financial hubs, exploring drivers of past successes and predicting future trends. Regulatory competition and leadership in financial standards form another critical area of Geofinance, crucial for understanding international capital flows and their impact on sovereignty and inter-state relations.
