The Dutch network for studies on pensions, aging and retirement (Netspar) has awarded two of its Topicality Grants, each worth € 20,000, to research projects of researchers at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University (RSM). Both projects promote a wider understanding of the economic and social implications of pensions, aging and retirement in the Netherlands and Europe.
The first project involves ‘Climate change and long-horizon portfolio choice: combining theory and empirics’ with Dr Mathijs Cosemans, Prof. Mathijs van Dijk, and PhD candidate Xander Hut. The second project will answer the question ‘Do more sustainable companies perform better during the corona crisis?’. This is a collaboration between Prof. Mathijs van Dijk and Prof. Gianfranco Gianfrate (EDHEC Business School).
