Description:
Socially responsible investment arises from the integration of environmental, social and governance criteria in investment decisions and the implementation of sustainable finance. As the impact of COVID-19 continues to be navigated, Responsible Investment Around the World considers economic recovery undertaken in different regions around the world. Financing policies and investment solutions are proposed that can responsibly help address the worlds most pressing issues - in climate change, social injustice, and access to healthcare. Paving the way for responsible investment towards creating a fairer and more equitable society, Julia M. Puaschunder offers a comparative approach that takes into account both law and economics to understand the most contemporary global international finance and responsible investment trends. The interdisciplinary nature of Responsible Investment Around the World appeals to academics and scholars, investors, business leaders, healthcare practitioners and NGOs. Tangible examples of successful responsible investment and financial solutions to solve worldwide predicaments make the book highly applicable to everyday finance and economics practice with real-world relevance.
