Regulating Sustainable Finance in Europe.

The European Sustainable Finance Action Plan marked its 5th anniversary in 2023. As this book goes to publication, the Action Plan's four key regulations are now all in force. The sustainable finance market is also in the process of reaching a new level of maturity in tackling greenwashing. The new European regulatory architecture for sustainable finance is getting closer and closer to its conceptual completion. The book provides you with an in-depth overview of this new emerging field of European law.
