Description
Presenting the key challenges of implementation and the actions taken by financial markets to support the SDGs, the book looks at the SDGs, sustainable development, and environmental, social and governance ESG risk as interconnected factors. Chapters highlight how financial markets can help green the economy through employing good practices for sustainability, including transparency, sustainable reporting and avoiding greenwashing.
