Environmental regulation and green investments: the role of green finance

Abstract

A vibrant debate on the ways and timing characterising the need to scale down the dependence of the current economic system on fossil fuels is attracting the attention of governments worldwide. A sustainable transition from a long-established regime, based on rooted production and consumption models, involves undertaking a wide array of challenges. Indeed, the transition towards sustainability is still recognised as having a high degree of complexity and uncertainty with respect the founding of required investment projects. In this regard, green finance can play a pivotal role in accelerating this transition so as to create the conditions to guarantee a level playing field between the traditional and green economy.
