Exploring how green finance has become a key strategy for the
financial industry in the wake of the 2007-08 financial crisis,
this timely book critically assesses the current dominant forms of
neoliberal green finance. Understanding Green Finance delivers a
pioneering analysis of the topic, covering the essential tenets of
green finance with an emphasis on critical approaches to mainstream
views and presenting alternatives insights and perspectives. This
prescient book first introduces the concept of, and current
approaches to, green finance and green monetary policy, ultimately
presenting a range of potential alternatives including both
reformist and transformative-progressive approaches. Chapters
explore how neoliberal green finance tends to deepen
financialisation, and does not effectively address environmental
problems, offering insights into reformist forms of green finance
that insist that state regulation and public financing are crucial
to tackling environmental problems. A crucial contribution to the
debate surrounding the financial industry’s role in addressing
the environmental crisis, this book will be beneficial for
academics and students with an interest in environmental,
ecological and financial economics. The accessible writing style
will also prove valuable for policy makers, civil society
professionals and financial and sustainability experts.
