It will be especially useful to new researchers and practitioners working in this field and will help them to quickly grasp the current state of financial engineering. The book equips the readers with comprehensive understanding of technological issues and financial innovations in environmental and social matters. It will allow the readers to use new econometric and operational methods to examine certain innovative products. Finally, it proposes new operational solutions based on a framework of analysis that has not yet been explored, so that the dialogue between financial engineering professionals and company managers may be more efficient, effective and impactful.
