This is from the Ferenc Mádl Institute of Comparative Law:
Sustainable Finance in European Jurisdictions
April 29 @ 09:00 - April 30 @ 14:30
The necessary path to a carbon-free economy will only be achievable with a fundamental transformation of essential sectors. Above all, there is a need to channel private capital into sustainable enterprises. The acceptance of this epoch-making project depends on the coherence of the legal framework to be created. So far, there are mainly regulations that can be summarized under the catchword “sustainable finance”, they concern shareholder governance, fund governance and product governance issues.
The aim of the Conference „Sustainable Finance in European Jurisdictions” is to investigate the implementation of this regulatory program from a comparative law perspective in order to uncover inconsistencies and, if necessary, to identify any need for action on the part of the European and the national legislators.
The conference will be organized in a hybrid format at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in Budapest and on Zoom. Please see the detailed schedule below.
