Investment companies, asset owners and banks are increasingly applying these non-financial factors as part of their analysis process to identify material risks and growth opportunities. Artificial Intelligence \u2013 sometimes called the New Electricity \u2013 has enormous potential to drive evidence-based ESG analysis and detect ESG-washing. Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Geospatial AI have become trending technologies in sustainable finance.<\/p>\n<p>Also, AI models themselves are a new component to ESG when companies build data-driven, AI-fuelled business models. Accountabilty, governance, explainability and trustworthiness of AI-driven applications will be crucial as well as their compliance with new AI regulations like the EU AI Act. However, some decision makers in finance are not aware of the capabilities of AI4ESG and some AI model builders are not aware of the meaning of ESG for society, economy and our planet.<\/p>\n<p>This is the motivation of our event \u2018Trends in AI4ESG\u2019 which is intended to improve know-how transfer between both camps and to moderate a dialogue. It facilitates the exchange of innovative ideas and cooperation opportunities in the field of AI4ESG.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Program:<\/p>\n<table class=\"contenttable\">\n<tbody>\n<tr align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">\n<td>17:00<\/td>\n<td><strong>Introduction<\/strong><br \/>\nProf. Dr. Volker Br\u00fchl, Managing Director, Center for Financial Studies<br \/>\nDr. Jochen Papenbrock, AI Frankfurt Rhine-Main e.V.
