Publisher Description: It is now known that our climate change trajectory is far beyond initial predictions of a worst case scenario. The imperative to move to a low-carbon global economy calls for the most significant market and economic transition in modern history. This will require massive financial input so it is essential to understand the ever-increasing role of private finance actors ' banks, insurers, and institutional investors ' in helping to meet this global challenge. |
