Riassunto

The urgency of mitigating climate change is mounting globally, and developing countries have a key role to play in ensuring a sustainable future. This book provides a comprehensive overview of all aspects of climate finance from the perspective of developing economies, with a focus on India.
Catalysing climate action requires economic and societal adjustments, beginning with additional resource mobilisation, capital reallocation and financing structures supported by appropriate regulations, reasonably functioning markets and effective institutions. Through an integrated assessment of macro-financial policies and market microstructures, this book provides a thorough understanding of how countries in the Global South can effectively mobilise and deploy financial resources to address climate change challenges. It brings together the views of academics, bureaucrats, policy analysts and civil society organisations that are actively engaged in climate finance to discuss challenges and options for India as it seeks to finance effective climate action. It offers a plurality of often-opposing ideas and observations, rooted in the reality of India’s political economy. The volume presents novel solutions as well as lessons from international experiences to initiate and accelerate the flow of finance into climate related activities.
This book will be an essential resource for scholars in environmental studies, development economics, and public policy, while offering crucial insights for policymakers and practitioners engaged in sustainable finance.
