List of Authors.

Thanks to various European Union regulations, sustainable finance has become a huge and wide-ranging topic that profoundly impacts international companies. Taking the "European Green Deal" as its starting point, the aim of this collection is to provide the first comprehensive overview of a highly complex matter. Each contribution from fourteen member states contains a detailed report on the specific legal situation in the respective country and outlines what further action may be planned. With the volume's help, readers will be able to identify quickly and easily where minimalistic harmonisation of regulations has resulted in serious discrepancies between individual countries.
