Item description from seller

Paperback. How to reimagine finance against the many threats to the future of the species: a blueprint for sustainable finance Daily bad news about climate change, shrinking resources, global health crises, species extinction and growing inequalities cause tremendous anxiety and insecurity, especially since the COVID pandemic. The ambition of this book is to explain in simple but precise terms, by means of concise illustrations, what "finance" is, and how its most innovative form, sustainable finance, can reconcile the well-being of mankind with the capacities of our planet. Is there a way to convince society that a fundamental transition is necessary - or even more, that it is possible? Can sustainable finance help? Financing Our Common Future offers encouraging perspectives by showing how little-known groups of financial stakeholders, such as development banks, are actively working to make sustainable finance happen. The book invites you to enjoy a journey through a multitude of situations, to question our preconceptions and to open our mindset so we can envision better ways of moving forward. AUTHOR: Regis Marodon is Special Advisor on sustainable finance at the French Development Agency (AFD). A PhD in Development Economics, he performed research assignments for the World Bank as a consultant in various African countries, before joining the AFD in 1989. He worked as a finance officer in many countries in Africa, Latin America and Mediterranean. During many years, Marodon was posted in Ghana, Mauritius, Turkey and Mexico, before being appointed Director for the Latin America Department and eventually joining the CEO advisory staff in 2016. SELLING POINTS: . Global macroeconomics made simple. This illustrated reader shows the necessity of sustainable financing in the age of global pandemics, climate change and growing inequalities. . COVID-19 is the jumping-off point in this affordable pictogram reader. Simple-to-follow infographics and texts explore global economies and the intensifying economic inequality between the developed and developing world communities. Highly topical, globally relevant and easy to understand. 210 illustrations Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
