The Finance of Climate Change A Guide for Governments, Corporations and Investors


Description: A comprehensive guide for global investors, banks, governments, corporations, insurance companies and carbon traders that covers the role of climate change and carbon as a determinant of financial and corporate value.

Illustrates the increasingly important role played by financial markets in government and corporate initiatives designed to combat global warming and climate change. Investigates the financing, insuring and investing effects of climate change.

This book informs, educates and manages the expectations of investors, governments, project developers and financiers. It enables these parties to operate more effectively, based on a better understanding of each other's requirements and risk appetites through the dissemination of best practices, case studies and lessons learned.

"It is my belief that climate change presents a significant long-term threat to the world. Climate change is now more than the subject of scientific analysis or environmental campaigning. It is on the board agendas of the world's financial institutions, multinational companies, and businesses. In a single book "The Finance of Climate Change" shows those opportunities presented to business in the transition to a low carbon economy. I commend it as a valuable and comprehensive resource." Tony Blair, British Prime Minister
