Recenzijas
'This is a mighty book! It covers all the difficult issues in sustainable finance, from the viewpoint of the firm, regulators and the law. The authors are questioning - no policy aspect is taken at face value, but rigorously scrutinised. An essential volume for anyone working in or studying finance.' Paul Fisher, Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership 'This work is a tour de force. It provides an essential, highly readable account of the complexities involved in climate finance regulation. At a time of when policymakers are looking for real guidance and workable solutions to move the needle on sustainable finance regulation, this book offers a timely, comprehensive, and impactful response.' Yesha Yadav, Milton R. Underwood Chair and Professor of Law, Vanderbilt University Law School
