| book description |

The finance sector has a crucial role to play in delivering a sustainable future for the planet. Finance plays a key role in addressing the Triple Planetary Crisis of climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss, and it is vital that the finance sector rapidly accelerates the mobilization of capital to support a successful and just global transition to net zero. This requires enhancing both the capabilities of financial institutions and developing the knowledge and skills of finance professionals to the point where every professional financial decision takes account of climate change and sustainability. Green and Sustainable Finance is a comprehensive guide to the principles and practice finance professionals at all levels should adopt to manage sustainability risks, engage and support their clients and customers, and take advantage of the opportunities presented by the transition of sectors and firms from high carbon to low or zero carbon, nature positive models. Sustainable growth and development resilience is good for finance and good for society. This fully updated third edition incorporates a wider perspective than previous editions, with nature-based impacts, risks, dependencies and opportunities considered alongside climate change - a broader focus that mirrors policy, regulatory and market developments in recent years. It introduces the work of the new new International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) and the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) along with extensive coverage of wider regulatory and market developments. There is also additional content on adaptation finance; transition finance and transition planning. Endorsed by the Chartered Banker Institute as the core text for the global benchmark Certificate in Green and Sustainable Finance, this book is essential reading for finance professionals, university students and individuals working to embed sustainability in business, finance, policy and regulation.
