ENVIRONMENTAL FINANCE: VALUE AND RISK IN AN AGE OF ECOLOGY

Mark A. White

Business Strategy and the Environment, 1996, vol. 5, issue 3, 198-206

Abstract: Environmental issues are restructuring markets and redirecting capital flows throughout the world. An outline is provided of concerns facing the development of an environmentally responsible or ‘environmental finance’ perspective. It reviews the major ways in which organizations are responding to environmental threats and opportunities in the three major branches of finance — corporate finance, investments and financial institutions — highlighting in particular novel programs and initiatives. In the past, financial concerns have exacerbated the degradation of the natural environment; in the future, they probably hold the key to their preservation.
