How do global decarbonization trends create external risks for emerging and developing economies?

The low-carbon transition, despite its imperative nature, is likely to present both economic and social opportunities as well as downside risks, depending on the companies, sectors, or regions. The assessment of these risks through the conduct of in-depth microeconomic studies is a mean of contributing to the emergence of financially and socially sustainable transition processes and limiting the risk of macro-financial imbalances and social disturbances at the national level.
