USA 

(1) Michael D. Bauer, Eric Offner e Glenn Rudebusch (Brookings) scrivono dell’Inflation Reduction Act del 2022, della sua importanza e dei suoi effetti. Nel corso del prossimo decennio e oltre, notano gli Autori, un’ampia gamma di nuovi crediti d’imposta e di spese governative dirette fornirà un sostegno sostanziale alle tecnologie e alle industrie pulite, nonché incentivi diretti alle famiglie e alle imprese statunitensi affinché investano per ridurre le emissioni di carbonio. In prospettiva di ‘finanza climatica’, gli Autori sottolineano che il settore finanziario giocherà un ruolo fondamentale nel finanziamento della transizione verde
