The climate change challenge has raised important questions about the financial sector’s role in realising a carbon-neutral global economy. The global financial crisis also brought critical ethical and governance questions for financial sector actors to the forefront. Such developments have together increased attention to environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues among financial sector practitioners and regulators but have only slowly attracted the interest of researchers.
ADBI, the Journal of Banking & Finance, and the Singapore Management University’s Sim Kee Boon Institute for Financial Economics invite paper submissions for presentation at a research conference on green and ethical finance to be held on 16-17 September 2020 in Singapore.
The conference will seek to both deepen and broaden this new strand of the literature and support the development of policy recommendations for economies in Asia and the Pacific.
Submission Procedure:
Authors are requested to submit full papers via this link by 15 May 2020. Abstracts or incomplete papers will not be considered. Authors must acknowledge that their paper submission is not currently under review for publication elsewhere.
