Working title of thesis:ÌýThe Impact of Economic Uncertainty on Green Finance and Financial Innovation: A Study of Sustainable Development in Eastern EuropeÌý
Research:ÌýMy research investigates the relationship between economic uncertainty and the development of green finance and financial innovation, with a particular focus on Eastern Europe. It aims to assess how external shocks, such as geopolitical tensions and environmental crises, influence investor confidence and the deployment of green financial instruments. By employing econometric models and policy analysis, this study seeks to uncover the mechanisms through which economic uncertainty affects green technology innovation and the transition towards sustainable development. The research also explores how tailored financial tools can mitigate these uncertainties, supporting the global agenda for achieving carbon neutrality and advancing the green transition in regions facing significant policy and economic instability.Ìý
