Sustainable Finance, a new open textbook, was published in February 2024 through the Australian Council of Australian Libraries (CAUL).
About the book 
Sustainable Finance answers the question of how business and investors can incorporate environmental and social factors into financial decision-making.
The book is at an introductory level and walks readers through embedding sustainability in all types of finance.
The second part of the book provides a deep dive into two topical issues: corporate transition to net zero and Indigenous finance.
The book is collaboration between The University of Queensland and the Auckland University of Technology.
