In order to help higher education institutions to better support students’ career choices, we introduce a set of 21 tools and techniques to assist students in the four stages of Self-Reflection, Professional Identity Definition, Career Scenarios Exploration, and Career Prototyping and Testing. These tools are a part of the BE(A)ST approach that can be implemented in four course formats (detailed in Chapter 5) by educational institutions, career professionals, professors, as well as the corporate world. In the second stage, we present the student profiles and their distinct needs, as well as the questionnaire to classify the students and off er personalized counseling. Indeed, we have developed a detailed, personalized path for each student profile, proposing tools to meet their specific needs.

Unrecognized expenses are a burden on the industry’s operations due to the income tax and personal income tax, as a value that should be added to the total expenses for a specific purpose. In addition to the financial burden, this positive regulation damages the operations of companies in terms of deteriorating the socio-social aspects of the existence of companies. Companies pressured by financial liabilities arising from unrecognized expenditures lose the motivation to contribute to the public interest, the common good, and distance themselves from further motivating employees. Apart from making the work more difficult, the current regulations also pose challenges in terms of the objectivity of the work, the constructiveness in its interpretation, but also open limited opportunities for unintentional omissions. The reason for that is in direct correlation with the nature of the matter which is related exclusively to the set regulations and legal acts regarding financial discipline. For these reasons, to a large extent, the subject matter of the paper is within the framework of theoretical analysis and literary review.

This paper discusses the concept of trustworthy systems, the role of regulations in ensuring their security, and the challenges and opportunities that arise in regulating trustworthy systems. We examine case studies of situations where regulations have succeeded or failed to prevent harm to consumers or society, and provide recommendations for how regulators, industry, and consumers can work together to create and maintain trustworthy systems. By addressing these challenges effectively, regulators can help ensure that trustworthy systems are in place to protect consumers, promote fair competition, and prevent harm to society in the digital age.

With climate change concerns, Green bonds seem to be the key variable of the sustainable development. The European Commission (EC) has attempted to define European Green Bond standards in order to provide a legal framework for the development of Green Bonds (GB) in Europe. Unfortunately, until now, standards are still in the making and the taxonomy will probably be ready in 2022 in order to optimally orient the traditional finance towards the sustainable finance. Green bonds are important innovations of the financial landscape and they may be a solution to tackle climate change and environmental issues. Given the recent availability of Green Bonds databases and the difficulties to provide reliable definitions in this field, only few empirical studies attempt to capture the nature of the Green Bonds. Currently, the time series of GB start in 2013 to end in 2020 This is a quite small sample to provide robust and consistent econometric results but the database can be used for statistical purposes.

Social entrepreneurship models have been successfully addressing pressing social problems across the world. The efforts emphasise creating new social start-ups and supporting mature social enterprises. The self-positioning of social entrepreneurs is the foremost criterion to have all kinds of assistance despite their ability to create social value for local communities. This paper relates the Manifest and Latent Functions of value-creating entrepreneurs and proposes that unintended consequences (social value) of intended actions (entrepreneurial activity) are as stable as social entrepreneur identity and structure. In essence, in order to move the theory and practice forward, we need to use new theories that clarify the nature of social entrepreneurship in developing countries, explain the role of value-driven entrepreneurs in the economic system, and inform the research and practice that value-creating entrepreneurs who do not exhibit 'social mission' but are significantly creating a social impact
