“Finance is crucial to sustainable development since transitioning toward a clean and just economy requires massive funding. Besides, increasing investors’ appetite for ESG assets underlies the fast-growing sustainable investment market. These trends underlie a proliferation of sustainability standards, ratings, scores, regulations, frameworks, and associations. This book provides a useful guide for non-ESG experts so that they understand the role of finance in achieving sustainable development.” Professor Doctor Timo Busch, Chair of Management and Sustainability, University of Hamburg “A valuable dimension of this book is its capacity to connect financial terms with non-financial ones. This book clarifies the sustainable finance notions to individual and institutional investors, financiers, managers, and the general public so that they can make informed decisions: business organizations need to embrace increasing sustainability standards, which requires a fundamental knowledge of sustainability; investors will benefit from clarifying adjacent concepts in sustainable investing, and students can improve their learning curve on the ever-growing sustainable finance arena. The value of this book is unquestionable as it facilitates understanding the building blocks of sustainable finance in the business world for years to come. Transformation starts with learning; learning begins with understanding fundamental concepts and this book is an excellent kickstart.” Carlos Serrano, Climate Finance Advisory Services Lead, LAC Financial Sector, International Finance Corporation (IFC, World Bank Group) Essential Concepts of Sustainability Finance provides an excellent guide to terms underlying climate change and its implications for finance. This is a very comprehensive and timely resource particularly in view of the recent proliferation of concepts and initiatives surrounding climate science and finance. Concepts ranging from biodiversity and sustainability science to green mortgage and transition finance are covered and nicely categorized using visual icons. A must-read for anyone with an interest in climate and sustainability issues. Professor Gulcin Ozkan, King's Business School, King's College London, Bush House, 30 Aldwych London WC2B 4BG, UK
