About this title

Synopsis

This volume offers a comprehensive examination of how innovative financial strategies can address critical environmental and social challenges globally. Organized around five key themes—financial institutions fostering financial stability; volatility in financial markets; inclusive development: MSMEs, and microfinance; financial innovation for sustainability: ESG and climate finance; and fintech—it presents pioneering studies that provide deep insights into the intersection of finance and sustainable development. The book fills the literature gap that concerns sustainable economic development, financial markets, and institutions and provides several high-quality studies that focus on sustainable economic development, financial markets, renewables, and climate risks. Contributions are by scholars from diverse fields and include practical policy recommendations. The book is an essential resource for academics, policymakers, and professionals dedicated to leveraging financial innovations for sustainable development. By offering a comprehensive examination of formal and informal financial institutions, digital finance, economic development, and green sustainability, this book not only advances knowledge but also provides practical solutions to build a resilient and inclusive global economy.
