Samenvatting
Het belang van een verschuiving naar een duurzamere globale economie is groter dan ooit. Spelers op de financiële markten kunnen hier een cruciale rol in spelen. Hun inspanningen omtrent duurzaamheid krijgen steeds vaker een dwingend karakter vanwege de risico’s die hieraan kleven. Deze titel richt zich op deze afdwingbare wettelijke verplichtingen.
'Sustainability and Financial Markets' geeft u inzicht in de verplichtingen die direct of indirect inhaken op duurzaamheid en toepasbaar zijn op spelers op financiële markten.
De urgentie voor een verschuiving naar een duurzamere wereld lijkt heviger dan ooit. Zeker nu de gevolgen van klimaatverandering steeds zichtbaarder worden. Spelers op de financiële markten kunnen een cruciale rol spelen in deze transitie naar een groenere wereld.
Aan duurzaamheidskwesties zoals de overgang naar hernieuwbare energiebronnen kunnen flinke financiële risico’s kleven. Daarom worden steeds meer inspanningen op het gebied van duurzaamheid verplicht. Essentieel, want duurzaamheidsproblemen leiden in toenemende mate tot fysieke-, overgangs-, reputatie- en aansprakelijkheidsrisico’s.
