“…Not insignificant is also the fact that economic resilience can have a significant impact on a country's well-being and prosperity, which is reflected in the Legatum Prosperity Index [28]. A resilient economy may be better able to adapt to change and weather difficult times, which contributes to a country's long-term stability and growth.…”

Economic resilience and sustainable finance are two interlinked and crucial issues for development and convergence in Romania’s counties increasing cohesion. These issues can contribute to sustainable and balanced growth of local and regional economies and to the reduction of inequalities in regional development. Economic resilience in counties refers to their capacity to adapt and survive in the face of unforeseen economic shocks or challenges, and sustainable finance refers to ensuring responsible management of financial resources to support long-term development and protect the environment. Identifying and understanding the significant variations in economic resilience and sustainable financing between counties is essential for the formulation of regional development policies and strategies. These variations provide valuable information about the vulnerabilities and opportunities of individual counties and guide resource allocation and investment decisions. The research provides new data and relevant information on the significant variations among counties in economic resilience and sustainable financing, using a Markov transition probability matrix and exploratory–visual method. This study on Romanian counties aims to provide valuable information for the formulation of public policies to support balanced economic development across the country. The results showed that economic diversification is essential to increase the resilience of the economy to shocks and fluctuations. Counties that have a diversified economic structure, with multiple sources of income and economic activities, are less vulnerable to the negative impact of economic or natural events. Governance and political stability are key factors in creating a favorable environment for investment and economic development. Well-managed government policies can help maintain macroeconomic stability and increase the resilience of the economy to external fluctuations.

“…The findings revealed a limited yet growing body of scientific literature addressing the EU taxonomy framework, with only nine relevant hits (for searching "EU taxonomy sustainable finance" within the title, abstract, and keywords, limiting the search to English-language articles from 2020, when the TR entered into force, and the keyword "EU taxonomy") identified, all of which were published within the last two years. Nevertheless, upon closer examination, it was observed that two studies merely touched upon the EU taxonomy as a peripheral topic rather than examining it as a primary focus [30,31]. In contrast, the remaining seven studies predominantly delved into the application and implications as well as the overall effectiveness of the EU taxonomy, including its effectiveness in redirecting capital towards sustainable investments [32,33], its impact on corporate investments [34] and the banking sector [35,36], its potential application in constructing environmental risk indicators [37], and its linkage to loan interest rates and future CO 2 prices [38].…”

This study addresses the current and future mandatory reporting on taxonomy alignment for companies within the EU, examining the practical applicability of criteria outlined in the Climate Delegated Act. Focusing on the electrical manufacturing industry through a case study, a five-step method was developed to assess the usability of the sector-specific criteria. The results highlight the need for enhanced usability across all criteria and offer key recommendations for policy development. Particularly, the substantial contribution criteria for climate change mitigation relating to the “manufacture of other low-carbon technologies” and “data-driven solutions for GHG emissions reductions” were found to be impaired by usability issues. These results emphasize the relevance of investigating the activities assessed in this study when policymakers revise the current criteria. Finally, the study highlights the necessity for future implementation of assessments to prevent usability issues and provide a holistic picture of the status quo of the current EU taxonomy criteria.
