Green Climate Finance and Sustainability Governance: A Global Outlook offers a comprehensive examination of the governance frameworks shaping climate finance worldwide. It explores how policies, funding mechanisms, and financial instruments are mobilised to support sustainability, while addressing critical challenges such as transparency gaps, fund misallocation, and regulatory inefficiencies. With growing global commitments under the Paris Agreement and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the book emphasises the urgent need for robust governance to ensure climate finance delivers equitable and impactful results.
Blending theoretical insights with practical case studies, the book analyses how innovations in public-private partnerships, blockchain, AI, and fintech are transforming climate finance governance. It covers key topics including carbon markets, green bonds, ESG investing, and climate risk assessment, drawing on examples from both developed and developing economies. Designed for researchers, policymakers, and financial professionals, this global outlook provides actionable recommendations to enhance accountability, risk management, and inclusive access to climate finance.
