10.06.25: STM 25 – From Sustainability Transformation Monitor to Transformation Finance
The joint event of the Sustainable Finance Cluster and econsense – Forum Nachhaltige Entwicklung der Deutschen Wirtschaft e.V. aims to illustrate the interaction between the real economy and the financial sector based on the STM25 results and to show ways in which effective transformation financing can be made possible.
The Sustainability Transformation Monitor (STM) uses a longitudinal survey to record the progress of the socio-ecological transformation in companies in the real economy and on the financial markets. It analyzes key drivers, success factors and obstacles that promote or hinder the conversion of business models, processes and products to more sustainable structures.
Our mission
The Sustainable Finance Cluster was created in 2018 from a merger of the Accelerating Sustainable Finance Initiative of Deutsche Börse and the Green Finance Cluster Frankfurt of the Hessian Ministry of Economics. The aim was to bundle activities in the field of sustainable finance in order to make more efficient use of financial market expertise in the area of sustainability. The main aim is to formulate and implement concrete approaches for the sustainability of national and international financial markets.
We are the central point of contact for questions on Sustainable Finance for the financial sector, the real economy, academia, and politics. Our aim is to work closely with all stakeholders in order to pool existing expertise in the field of sustainable finance and develop it further together. In this way, we create clear added value for our members and sponsors. We want Germany to develop into a leading location for sustainable finance – we provide the impetus for this.

„Sustainable finance is the key to a long-term stable and future-proof economic system. Every investment today has an impact – not just on your wallet, but on society and our environment. A truly sustainable and future-proof economic and financial policy must focus on this added impact by including environmental and social criteria in the decision-making process.“
