This book explores business and governance solutions for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted by all UN member states in 2015. It features the proceedings of the 5th International Scientific Conference on Sustainable Development (ESG 2024), held in St. Petersburg in 2024.

Without adequate funding to invest in sustainable development and the transformation of energy and food systems, countries and companies cannot achieve stable financial positions. To meet the SDGs, all nations and businesses must invest in renewable energy, universal social protection, quality education, decent jobs, universal health coverage, sustainable food systems, infrastructure, and digital transformation. Incentives for SDG achievement address financing needs through a combination of various forms and mechanisms. Implementing these incentives will also necessitate broader changes in both national and international financial architectures. The book covers a range of fields, including sustainable development for the national and global economy, sustainable development in industrial and financial policy, financing sustainable transformations in industry, finance, and management, sustainable development principles in tax systems, and impact of sustainable development on financial markets among other topics.

The book is intended for scholars and professionals involved in public and corporate finance, financial accounting and auditing, sustainable development risk management, economic growth, macroeconomics, monetary policy within a sustainable development environment, public and corporate governance, as well as corporate communications and public relations.
