Abstract:

The aim of this research is to find the correlation between financial performance, firm size, foreign ownership as independent variables and environmental investment as dependent variable. The measurement of environmental investment is environmental investment total per assets total. This research is using quantitative approach that examined the correlation between variables through hypothesis testing. The sample of this research is 46 public listed mining companies in the period of 2014-2018 by purposive sampling method. The data and hypothesis analysis used correlation analysis. The results indicated that financial performance have positive correlation on environmental investment whereas firm size and foreign ownership do not have any correlation on environmental investment. Great environmental investment can lead to higher profit, reputation and legitimacy of the company.

Abstract:

This research is a quantitative research and the aim of this research is to empirically examine the influence of environmental policy, environmental pollution, environmental energy, and environmental finance on earnings quality and profitability, leverage, and company size as control variables. Earnings quality is measured using real earnings management as a measurement.This study uses secondary data, namely non-financial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period during 2019-2021 . The total sample in this study was 198 samples using the panel data regression analysis method and using data analysis with STATA. The research results show that environmental policy, environmental pollution, environmental energy, and environmental financial no significant effect on earnings quality. But there is a significant and positive effect on the control variables including: profitability, company size and debt ratio on earnings quality. The limitation of this study is that the population is non-financial companies and only measures the disclosure of sustainability reports only from pollution, energy, finance and policy. The practical implication of this research is that the more sustainability report disclosures made by companies, including: policies, pollution, energy and finance, no significant effect on the quality of earnings in companies listed on the IDX, and the increasing profitability, debt ratios and company size, the higher earnings quality, so that investors can consider profitability, company size and debt ratio in investment decisions because one of the considerations of investors is profit. The original value of this research is that this research measures more specific environmental reporting disclosures including: environmental policy, environmental pollution, environmental energy, and environmental financial and earnings quality measurement in this study uses real earnings management with the Cohen and Zarowin (2010) model which is still rarely used.

Abstract:

Abstract Identifying the intersection between digital finance, green finance and social finance is important for promoting sustainable financial, social and environmental development. This paper suggests a link between digital finance, green finance and social finance. Using a simple conceptual model, I show that digital finance offers a smooth, efficient and seamless channel for individuals and corporations to fund social projects that deliver a social dividend, and green projects lead to a sustainable environment. The implication is that digital finance is both an enabler and a channel for efficient green financing and social financing.

Abstract:

Environmental regulation is a crucial tool for controlling environmental pollution. Digital finance is essential for the development of green finance. The relationship between environmental regulation and digital finance concerning environmental pollution is an issue worth exploring. This paper uses the spatial econometric model and the panel threshold model to empirically analyze the impact of environmental regulation and digital financial inclusion on environmental pollution using panel data from 30 Chinese provinces between 2011 and 2019. It mainly discusses the independent impact and synergy of environmental regulation and digital inclusive finance on environmental pollution. The research results show that the improvement of the intensity of environmental regulation and the development level of digital-inclusive finance can effectively alleviate the problem of environmental pollution. Moreover, environmental regulation and digital inclusive finance can coordinately control environmental pollution. A panel threshold analysis shows that as the intensity of environmental regulation increases, digital financial inclusion will reflect the function of environmental governance. Similarly, with the development of digital financial inclusion, environmental regulation has shown a significant inhibitory effect on environmental pollution. The results of a heterogeneity analysis show that the intensity of environmental regulation in the eastern region has a significant inhibitory effect on environmental pollution. Digital financial inclusion in the central region shows a strong environmental governance function. The intersection of environmental regulation and digital financial inclusion has shown a significant synergistic governance effect in the eastern region. Therefore, the government gives full play to the functions of environmental regulation and digital inclusive finance environmental governance to achieve coordinated governance of environmental pollution.

Abstract:

The deep integration of digital technology and finance is driving a rapid transformation of financial services in China. Inclusive Finance, different from traditional finance, how to play the role of “inclusive” on environmental decision-making to promote the national environmental protection work? There is little literature to inquire the role of Inclusive Finance at the micro level. This paper discusses the impact of inclusive finance on enterprise environmental protection investment and its conduction mechanism. The study found that inclusive finance could drive enterprise environmental investment. In particular, the usage depth of inclusive finance has a sustainable effect on the promotion of environmental protection investment. Furthermore, the empirical test of the mechanism shows that inclusive finance can break through the mismatch problems of traditional finance and display a better “inclusive” feature to ease the credit constraints and enhance their ability of technological innovation, which help enterprise to invest in environmental protection. Based on our findings, we provide empirical evidence and policy options for the optimization of inclusive finance to help environment protection.

Abstract:

Abstract Most Chinese overseas energy investments financed by China’s development banks flow into fossil fuel extraction and coal-fired plants. The carbon intensity of Chinese foreign energy investments imposes environmental and social costs on host states. Building on the literature related to the environmental reform of the World Bank, this article critically analyses the carbon-intensive projects backed by China’s development finance in Central Asia. It shows that China’s energy investments in the region will face increasing carbon-related regulatory risks. So far, the transition towards a more environmentally-driven development policy has been limited in China. However, the increasing importance of climate regulations in host countries is likely to induce fundamental changes to the project-screening process of China’s energy development finance.

Abstract:

Environmental policies of providers of international finance – namely the World Bank, export credit agencies, and Equator Principles banks – provide interesting cases within which to study the power of business not as only an input to the political process or as a constraint on politics, but also as a conduit for both state and non-state actors.This paper shows how targeting financial actors has allowed NGOs to transform their rather weak discursive power base into instrumental power over business actors in other sectors. NGOs have channeled their power through states, consumers, and financial institutions; this has allowed them to augment discursive power over their targets with additional indirect, yet more immediate, forms of structural and instrumental power. As a consequence of both direct and indirect NGO pressure, financial institutions have adopted environmental policies. This article posits a theoretical explanation of the underspecified power relationships in NGO strategies that allow NGOs to exploit weak links in commodity chains for their campaigns.This paper argues that financial institutions wield considerable structural power through their ability to control access to finance. It is particularly this power base which has made them prime targets for NGOs campaigning for the greening of infrastructure development projects. As a consequence of NGO pressure, financial institutions have adopted environmental policies which in turn have provided the World Bank and Equator banks with additional sources of discursive power.

Abstract:

To what extent are decisions regarding Chinese investment in Africa motivated by environmental factors? A considerable body of work has examined the determinants of foreign aid among traditional donors, producing useful debates about the relative significance of recipient need or merit and donor interest. But far less scholarly effort has focused on the motivations of emerging donors and the role of environmental factors in influencing aid allocation. In an attempt to fill these gaps, this article uses statistical techniques to test the hypothesis that China deliberately invests in African countries with poor environmental performance for reasons related to recipient need or donor interest. Drawing upon project-level data regarding investments made by China in Africa from 2002 to 2012, the analysis suggests that Chinese development assistance grows commensurate with a country’s environmental performance, but only to a point. After a state achieves a certain level of environmental quality, Chinese investments decline.

Abstract:

Reserve Bank of India observes Financial Literacy week every year since its starting from 2016. The financial literacy week is been observed with an aim to literate the public financially across our country. Last year (2022) it was observed between 14th February to 18th February with the core motto “Go Digital, Go Secure”. Last year’s financial literacy weak gave stress on creating financial awareness on convenience and security of digital transactions and also protection of digital transactions. The highest bank of our country advised all other banks to disseminate information and create awareness to the general public. RBI has planned for a media campaign at a larger level to spread basic financial awareness messages to the common public. This initiative tells us the importance of financial literacy in our country. As the present government is keen on the development front through digitalisation, the literacy on financial transactions becomes more vital. General public may not involve in high number of transactions at a time in a day but the transactions collectively result to a huge amount in a day. So, being aware of each and every small transaction and the crimes connected to those transactions become more important for the mitigation and prevention of such frauds. In this context, this article tries to join hands with RBI to literate the public on the frauds and their mitigation.

Abstract:

Clean energy is currently a top priority on the global agenda, and green bonds have emerged as a key response from financial markets. However, while these bonds aim to reduce carbon emissions, they may create perverse incentives. Brazil has made significant investments in eolic parks in recent years, with players issuing green bonds to finance these activities. One region that has seen high levels of investment is the interior of Bahia state, which has historically had low levels of economic and social development. Unfortunately, the production of wind energy in this region has been marked by several social conflicts. Despite this, these conflicts have largely gone unnoticed, as the appeal of clean energy has overshadowed them. Social issues such as land disputes are critical but often overlooked in green finance mechanisms. In some cases, these financial incentives may incentivize land grabbing from vulnerable populations in the name of clean energy production.

Abstract:

Green finance is an important economic means to promote sustainable development. It is also an important way for enterprises to fulfill their social responsibility and design ESG strategies. Green finance is of great significance to China's 14th Five-Year Plan and social and economic development. As governments and social organizations around the world pay more attention to environmental protection, the political design of green finance in China is constantly improving and the number of market players is increasing. At the same time, the research on green finance has gradually shifted from macro-level policy research to micro-level research on green financial products and trading behavior. However, there are still some issues with how green finance is done, and there is a lack of research on the performance of enterprises in green finance and the quantitative evaluation of green finance. Based on the development status of green finance in China, this paper reviews the existing problems and previous studies of green finance and puts forward relevant conclusions on the future development of green finance, such as attaching importance to ESG participation of enterprises and quantitative evaluation and research development.

Abstract:

As an essential way to promote ecological civilization, green finance is attracting wide attention. However, whether green finance can successfully regulate the green technology innovation effect of heterogeneous environmental regulations and boost green technology innovation in coordination with heterogeneous environmental regulations remains unclear. Based on the re-measurement of the green finance development index of various provinces and cities in China, this study uses the spatial Durbin model to test the above problems empirically. The results show that green finance and “market incentive” environmental regulations can promote regional green technology innovation, while “command and control” environmental regulations inhibit regional green technology innovation. Green finance plays a negative regulatory role in the mechanism of heterogeneous environmental regulations affecting green technology innovation. Green finance alleviates the negative impact of “command and control” environmental regulations on green technology innovation and weakens the positive impact of “market-incentive” environmental regulations on green technology innovation. In terms of spillover effects, green finance can effectively promote green technology innovation in neighboring regions, while heterogeneous environmental regulations have a crowding-out effect on green technology innovation in neighboring regions.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to examine whether sustainable finance literacy and the perceived environmental impact of sustainable finance instruments exert substantial influence over the sustainable investment attitudes of investors within the developing country setting of Ankara, Türkiye. Following a systematic literature review, an online survey was designed and conducted. Multivariate regression models were used for the analysis. The findings illustrate that individuals with a greater level of sustainable finance literacy and a positive perception of the favorable environmental effects of sustainable finance instruments tend to exhibit a positive investment stance and are more likely to invest in sustainable finance instruments. Among the questions related to sustainable finance literacy, the most significant factor in explaining sustainable investment attitude is the knowledge of how sustainable finance instruments can be utilized for risk diversification. In addition, it is depicted that individuals with higher income levels exhibit a favorable disposition toward sustainable finance instruments. The results of our study imply that, to stimulate sustainable investments in developing countries, regulatory authorities and sustainable fund issuers such as financial corporations can enhance promotional campaigns and workshops aimed at increasing awareness and understanding of sustainable finance literacy, sustainable financial instruments, and their positive impact on the environment.

Abstract:

Green finance and environmental regulation can reduce CO2 emissions and promote the sustainability of economic development. Based on panel data of 126 resource-based prefecture-level cities in China from 2005 to 2017, the current study used a dynamic panel data model to empirically determine the CO2 emission reduction effects of different green finance instruments under different environmental regulatory intensities. The results showed that green finance tools had significant negative effects on the intensity of CO2 emissions, and green finance can adapt to environmental regulations of different intensities, which cooperated to promote carbon emission reduction. Moreover, in comparison, the debt-based green finance instrument had a stronger effect than the equity-based green finance instrument, and they did not show a coupling relationship. An administrative adjustment in green finance and environmental regulation is required to reduce environmental emissions and to improve sustainable development.

Abstract:

Abstract The article is devoted to the study of the essence of “green” finance and is intended to give an idea of the existing “green” financial instruments and problems of their application in Ukraine, to outline ways to improve the use of “green” financial instruments to ensure social and environmental security. The study calls for a review and improvement of practices in the use of “green” financial instruments, taking into account the international experience. The research paper is structured as follows: firstly, theoretical approaches to the essence of “green” finance are disclosed; secondly, the impact of “green” finance on social and environmental security is considered; thirdly, “green” finance is examined financial instruments to enhance national security in both the environmental and social spheres. The results of the study allowed to provide directions for the development of “green” finance in the context of social and environmental security in Ukraine, in particular, to strengthen the use of public-private partnerships, climate risk insurance and investment in education to create a skilled labor force in “green” finance.

Abstract:

There is a limited body of research that specifically examines the influence of green finance on the environmental performance of enterprises. Employing the panel data of Chinese A-share listed firms from 2012 to 2017 and random forest methods, we intend to examine whether green finance contributes to promoting firms’ environmental performance. If yes, how does green finance promote firms’ environmental performance? Using various empirical tests, we obtain the main results as follows: First, the baseline results show that green finance is conducive to improving firms’ environmental performance. The baseline results are supported in various model settings, including Difference-In-Difference (DID), Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART), and matching approaches. Secondly, the internal mechanism tests show that a rise in green innovation and an improvement in green investment efficiency are the main channels through which green finance helps to improve firms’ environmental performance. In addition, considering firm-scale heterogeneity and ownership heterogeneity, we conduct heterogeneity checks. The results of heterogeneity checks show that the positive effect of green finance on the environmental performance of firms is only pronounced for small- and medium-scale firms and for non-state-owned enterprises. Our study expands the framework of green finance research on firms’ environmental performance and provides practical implications for the development of strategies for emerging economies.

The tasks of the subjects of personal finance management are considered to reduce current cash expenditures, increase income through economic activities and conduct typical financial calculations to determine the budget. The goal of ensuring the balance of personal finances can be achieved through life insurance, property, liability business, etc.

Abstract:

Under current global conditions, finance may play a critical role in allocating investment to sustainable enterprises and projects, thereby hastening the transition to a low-carbon circular economy. Finance promotes risk assessment and, as a result, can aid in addressing the inherent ambiguity surrounding environmental concerns such as the impact of carbon emissions on climate change. In recent decades, thinking about sustainable finance has progressed through several stages, with the emphasis steadily changing from short-term profit to long-term value creation. This study seeks to conduct an examination of the concept and premises of sustainable corporate finance based on literature research, with the goal of bringing arguments to the need to shift the financial paradigm. This emerging perspective emphasizes that, while profit creation and maximization are important, firms must also seek other goals that have an impact on society, such as those connected to sustainable development. The integration of environmental, social, and governance components into financial decision-making processes is referred to as sustainable finance. Recent developments highlight the importance of businesses' commitment to responsible behavior in transforming the company into a truly sustainable enterprise that adds value to the business, society, and the environment.

Abstract:

In recent years, digital finance has become a crucial part of the financial system and reshaped the mode of green finance in China. Digital finance has brought certain impact on economic growth, industrial structure, and resident income, which may affect pollution. The nexus of digital finance and environment in China is thus worth exploring. By revising the traditional Environmental Kuznets Curve model with income inequality variable, this paper decomposes the environmental effects of economic activities into income growth effect, industrial structure effect and income inequality effect, and use panel data of China’s provinces to conduct an empirical analysis. The results reveal the following: (1) the Environmental Kuznets Curve is still valid in sample, and digital finance can reduce air and water pollution (as measured through SO2 and COD emission) directly; (2) in the influence mechanism, digital finance can alleviate income inequality and promote green industrial structure, thus reducing pollution indirectly, but the scale effect of income growth outweighs the technological effect, which increases pollution indirectly; and (3) digital finance has a threshold effect on improving the environment, then an acceleration effect appears after a certain threshold value. From the regional perspective, digital finance development in eastern regions is generally ahead of central and western regions, and the effects of environmental improvement in the eastern regions are greater. According to the study, this paper suggest that digital finance can be an effective way to promote social sustainability by alleviating income inequality and environmental sustainability by reducing pollution.

Abstract:

At present, with the continuous advancement of the process of globalization, resources and environmental problems have caused a threat to the global economy and human development. Therefore, many countries pay more and more attention to the development of green finance. What is green finance? Green finance refers to economic activities that support environmental improvement, response to climate change, and efficient use of resources, namely, financial services provided for project investment and financing, project operation, and risk management in the fields of environmental protection, energy conservation, clean energy, green transportation, and green buildings. Generally, green finance originated from the Limits to Growth promulgated by the Club of Rome in 1972, which proposed the concept of sustainable development for the first time, and environmental finance came into being, which was the predecessor of green finance. With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, green finance has developed rapidly and has become a new means of current environmental management, representing new characteristics, new trends, and new directions of financial industry development. In the future, the development direction of green finance will mainly include the innovation of financial products, the enhancement of information transparency, and the empowerment of technology. This paper will be completed in the form of a literature review. This paper will collect literature from major paper websites and elaborate on the history, current situation, and future suggestions of green finance from three perspectives.

Abstract:

Given the growing awareness of sustainable development, the environmental protection industry has attracted much attention. Green finance has developed rapidly in policymaking and practices. This study provides a framework for evaluating green finance via linkage analysis based on input–output theory. Measurements on industrial linkages are calculated in China in two provinces from 2002 to 2018, which study the relationship between finance and environmental protection sectors. The results show that the environmental protection sector (EPS) in China has gradually developed from a sector with weak backward and strong forward linkages to a sector with strong backward and weak forward linkages from 2002 to 2015; however, in 2017 and 2018, the EPS returned to a sector with weak backward and strong forward linkages. At the provincial level, the EPS used to be a key sector with strong backward and forward linkages. The connection between the finance sector and the EPS rose first, then declined in the country and the Zhejiang province; Guangdong had a similar evolution in the former period, but it had a rising trend in the latest year. The findings provide insights for further promoting the support from the finance sector to the environmental protection activities.

Abstract:

Most countries with economies in transition in Central and Eastern Europe and the New Independent States of the former Soviet Union use earmarked, environmental funds to channel subsidised finance for environmental protection. In some Central and Eastern European countries in particular, the funds are major financiers of environmental investments. The funds are typically governmental institutions capitalised by various revenue sources, including environmental charges and fines. They generally provide grants or soft loans for a wide range of environmental protection activities. Although a number of circumstances in economies in transition may justify the provision of subsidised finance for environmental investments, and though funds have been endorsed as potentially effective transitional mechanisms, a number of concerns remain as regards their role vis-à-vis other environmental policy tools, their effectiveness and efficiency, and their impact on the development of more market-based financing mechanisms. In this paper I will review development trends among the funds, examine issues critical to their role and operation, and identify institutional strengthening needs.

Abstract:

In this study, taking the pilot zones for green finance reform and innovations set up in 2017 as the objects, a quasi-natural experiment is conducted to assess the environmental effects of green finance policy using the difference-in-difference propensity score matching (PSM-DID) method based on the panel data in 30 provincial-level administrative regions from 2011 to 2019. In addition, further efforts are made to investigate the differences of green financial policies in environmental effect. According to the research findings, the set-up of green finance pilot zones can reduce the environmental pollution, and green finance policy is conductive to environmental enhancement. Meanwhile, a partial mediating effect exists between a region’s innovation capability and industrial structure. On the whole, green finance policy plays the most significant role in improving the eastern region’s environmental pollution, followed by the central region, but barely enhances the environment in the western region. To sum up, the more serious the environmental pollution is, the better the effect of green finance policy.

Abstract:

With time, the world is concerned about environmental protection and climate change, so policymakers and researchers focus on green finance. We investigate the role of green finance, GDP, trade openness, and foreign direct investment on environmental sustainability in Pakistan from the period from 1980 to 2020. By applying the autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL) we find that green finance, GDP, and foreign direct investment are a positive and significant relationship with environmental sustainability while trade openness is a negative and insignificant effect on environmental sustainability. According to the theory of the environmental Kuznets curve, a model of environmental sustainability is developed.

Abstract:

The majority of research examines the relationship between finance and the environment empirically, but they lack a comprehensive theoretical framework. To shorten this gap, we develop an analytical framework dubbed “management in resource constraint settings” and elucidate the theoretical process of finance constraints influencing environmental performance. We explore the influence of finance constraints on environmental performance of China's enterprises, as well as their possible mechanism, using financial data from A-share listed companies on the Shanghai Stock Exchange from 2010 to 2019. Our findings suggest that financial constraints can drastically reduce China’s firms’ environmental performance, and that green management is a viable channel. These discoveries are crucial for China's ecological civilization and considerable economy to develop in a coordinated manner.
