The debate on connections between economic activity and
socio-environmental impact has become increasingly relevant. As a
result, ethical finance is emerging from its niche. However, the
terms "ethical finance" and "sustainable finance" are often
confused and overlapping, and the risk of greenwashing is high.
Many authors suggest the need of a paradigm shift because the
present economic system is no longer able to maintain a safe
environment. Tim Jackson explicitly argues about the need of a
future of "prosperity without growth". From the experiences of
ethical finance, we can identify some interesting tools to achieve
that goal. This book explains how ethical finance works and which
innovations it has engendered in financial and economic systems;
clarifies the links between finance and ethics, going beyond
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investing, and offers an
approach, which is vital for most financial sectors, from
microcredit to impact investing; investigates the goals,
constraints, and opportunities of environmental and social
considerations in finance and explores the more innovative
experiences in banking and investing. It helps readers understand
the phenomena in depth, distinguishing the strategic, managerial,
organizational, and risk practices of ethical finance. The authors
adopt a holistic but critical approach, both with respect to the
practices exercised by financial intermediaries, and with reference
to new regulatory aspects. The book identifies the key issues and
current challenges of ethical finance, both for financial operators
and regulators. Several concrete international cases offer
empirical comparisons of practices, and as such it will be an
invaluable reference for academics and researchers who wish to
deepen their knowledge of ethical finance.
