• Abstract

   

  In this article we investigate the aspects that link sustainable finance and sustainable chemistry on the basis of the theoretical definitions currently available. Our aim is to analyse what reflections have been made by scholars and to identify a further effort to understand the dynamics underlying these two fundamental sectors within the transition process of the global economy. In section 1 we analyse the relationship between sustainability and economic development, in section 2 we define the boundary of the role of sustainable finance, in section 3 we address the discussion and in section 4 we present our conclusions.
