Reihe: Sustainable Finance

The integration of cutting-edge technologies – such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) – combined with a growing emphasis on sustainability and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), is profoundly transforming the business landscape in general, and the fields of Accounting and Finance in particular. This edited volume presents a comprehensive collection of expert insights, research findings, and reflective essays that examine the evolving landscape of Accounting and Finance research, education, and professional practice.

Bringing together diverse perspectives from various scholars worldwide, the book offers readers a deeper understanding of how technology, digitalization, innovation, sustainability, and evolving pedagogical approaches are reshaping the Accounting and Finance domain. Rather than predicting a future in which automation replaces human expertise, it highlights the changing role of Accounting and Finance professionals – emphasizing the need for new skill sets and a mindset that embraces technological advancement while aligning with sustainability goals. This volume serves as a timely and essential resource for anyone seeking to navigate – and contribute to – the profound transformations underway in the Accounting and Finance field.
