Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Africa stands at a critical juncture in its development trajectory, grappling with the twin challenges of climate vulnerability and persistent socio-economic inequality. As global attention shifts towards sustainable development and climate action, there is growing recognition that Africa's green transition must be inclusive, innovative, and financially viable. However, access to climate finance and support for green entrepreneurship remain underdeveloped across much of the continent, limiting the realisation of its vast potential for sustainable growth. This book explores how innovative financial instruments and entrepreneurial models can drive Africa's green economy agenda.Drawing on case studies, policy analysis, and African-led practices, it examines the transformative roles of green bonds, impact investing, blended finance, and digital financial tools in supporting climate-aligned ventures. It also interrogates the institutional, regulatory, and capacity challenges that hinder the scaling of green entrepreneurship and proposes practical pathways for reform. The book gives prominence to African agencies and actors, showcasing how local stakeholders, particularly women, youth, and community-based enterprises, are crafting context-sensitive solutions that bridge environmental sustainability with economic inclusion. It emphasises the need to integrate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, mobilise domestic and international capital, and align national policy frameworks with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to accelerate a just green transition. Further, the book offers a rare Africa-centred perspective, highlighting local innovations and solutions in green finance, financial inclusion, and sustainable entrepreneurship in Africa.This book is essential reading for scholars, policymakers, development practitioners, financial institutions, and innovation hubs interested in Africa's sustainable future.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) represents a bold and historic step toward regional economic integration, offering potential for intra-African trade, job creation, and inclusive development. Yet, the success of this ambitious initiative hinges not only on tariff liberalisation and infrastructure development but also on the ability of African economies to build a cohesive and interoperable digital financial architecture.This book provides an in-depth and interdisciplinary examination of how financial technology (FinTech) can support the realisation of AfCFTA's goals. It explores key pillars such as digital payment systems, mobile money interoperability, blockchain for trade finance and supply chains, digital identity and Know Your Customer (KYC) protocols, cybersecurity, and the harmonisation of regulatory frameworks. Drawing on diverse African case studies, the book highlights both opportunities and structural challenges in building a secure, inclusive, and innovative digital financial ecosystem across the continent. By linking technological solutions to institutional reforms, it demonstrates how FinTech can enhance cross-border trade, bridge financial gaps, and empower small businesses and informal sector participants. The book's themes directly align with current high-level policy goals, including Africa's Agenda 2063, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and ongoing digital transformation efforts.The book is essential reading for academics, students of digital financial inclusion, FinTech regulation, and innovation policy in emerging markets, especially within the frameworks of institutional and regional integration theories. It will also appeal to policymakers, regulators, FinTech innovators, and development practitioners interested in Africa's digital and economic integration journey.…
