Description:

The topic of this term’s seminar is: Recent developments in the EU ETS
 

The EU ETS is the cornerstone of the European Union’s drive to reduce its emissions of manmade greenhouse gases which are largely responsible for warming the planet and causing climate change. Thus, understanding the EU ETS as a policy tool and analysing its relation to financial markets is of utmost importance. During this seminar we study the mechanism and functioning of the EU ETS.
