      abstract = {This book is an essential resource for anyone looking to  gain greater insight into how the EU is approaching  sustainable development and how the integration of ESG  strategies is transforming this space. With an in-depth  analysis of the ESG framework, SRI strategies, and their  connection to sustainable development, this book is an  indispensable resource for policy-makers, regulators,  educators, and the corporate world. Highly recommended for  all those interested in European development.  --Scheherazade S. Rehman, PhD, GW Deans Professorial Fellow  of International Finance, Professor of International  Finance (GWSB) & Professor of International Affairs (ESIA),  The George Washington University, USA This book analyses  sustainable finance policies implemented by the European  Commission since January 2020. Gathering contributors from  a range of European and international universities, it  explores how EU strategy on green finance encourages and  stimulates socially responsible investments that provide  solutions to the challenges of the energy transition. The  book provides a comprehensive coverage of economic,  financial and legal issues concerning sustainable finance  and ESG factor integration in the EU. The first part  discusses theoretical and empirical perspectives on  socially responsible investments (SRIs) and ESG  integration, while the second section focuses specifically  on the role of corporate governance in both institutional  and private investment spheres. Part III explores valuation  and risk, including a discussion of current trends in SRI  funding in the new European ESG Regulatory Framework and an  exploration of blue finance and its incorporation into EU  financial strategy. The final section discusses legal and  regulatory issues, including a discussion on the current  debate between soft and hard law concerning ESG regulation.  This edited collection will be of interest to researchers  and policymakers working in green finance, sustainability,  energy economics and financial law.
