This book explores current digitalization issues in finance and accounting with particular focus on emerging and transitioning markets. It features models, empirical studies and cases studies on topics such as Fintech, blockchain technology, financing renewable energy, and XBRL usage from sectors such health care, pharmacology, transportation, and education. Such a complex view of current economic phenomena makes the volume attractive not only for academia, but also for regulators and policy-makers, when deliberating the potential outcome of competing regulatory mechanisms.

This edition provides a mix of research perspectives to examine the economic and non-economic outcomes of global developments in financial regulation, monetary and fiscal measures, or sustainable development, with a tailored focus on specifics in emerging and transitioning countries. The volume combines a mix of approaches to investigate relevant newly emerged topics (e.g., economics of emissions, corporate social responsibility reporting) as well as traditional issues requiring new approaches (e.g., exchange rate mechanisms, investment strategies, the impact of corporate reporting on economic fundamentals). Such a comprehensive view of contemporary economic phenomena makes the volume attractive not only to academia, but also to regulators and policymakers, when deliberating on the potential outcomes of competing regulatory mechanisms.

This proceedings volume offers a diverse compilation of scholarly papers that explores financial markets and corporate reporting in times of geopolitical crises. Featuring a selection of papers presented at the 2022 and 2023 Annual Conference on Finance and Accounting (ACFA) held in Prague, Czech Republic, this book provides empirical research, insightful analyses and practical implications on the challenges and opportunities in today’s global financial landscape. It covers a wide spectrum of research methodologies including modeling, empirical testing, cases studies, and qualitative analysis. From investigating the economics of crypoassets to examining sustainable finance development issues, this book is valuable to academics, scholars, researchers, and policymakers in finance and accounting, including auditing and tax theory.
