Description

This wide-ranging Springer edited volume, part of the Contributions to Finance and Accounting series, brings together more than 70 contributions on how artificial intelligence, digitalization, and automation are reshaping finance, law, and adjacent fields. Anchored by editors with backgrounds in sustainable finance and procedural law, the book traces the transformative impact of AI on financial innovation — from fintech start-ups challenging traditional banking to the international legislation and regulatory frameworks now catching up with that change. Surrounding chapters extend the AI-in-practice theme into business management, education, and technology, reflecting how broadly these tools are being adopted across professional fields.
