Abstract:

Environmental management and sustainable financial growth are currently hot topics in academic research. This article examines the relationships among environmental management, debt financing, and sustainable financial growth in the Chinese tourism industry. The results show that environmental management and debt financing have promoted sustainable financial growth, and the overall effect of debt financing on sustainable financial growth has been affected by environmental management. After employing different methods of controlling the endogeneity, these conclusions are still robust. We also examine the mediating effect and threshold effect on environmental management, debt financing, and sustainable financial growth, and the results reveal that debt financing can mediate the effect of environmental management on sustainable financial growth and that there is nonlinear impact of debt financing on sustainable financial growth in different thresholds of environmental management. The analysis results show that the presented policy proposals promote the development of tourism companies from the aspects of debt financing and environmental management.

Abstract:

Micro, Small, and Medium-scale Enterprises (MSMEs) play a significant role in fostering employment, innovation, productivity, and wealth creation, all of which contribute to the country's growth in Uganda. However, the majority of these enterprises rarely survive to turn five years old, while others and others persistently fall behind sustainable growth trends in terms of sales turnover, profitability, employee numbers, and total assets due to financial constraints. Despite this position, not much empirical research has been sustainable growth of these businesses. This study set out to develop an ideal financing framework for supporting the sustainable growth of Micro, Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in Uganda. Utilising a quantitative cross-sectional descriptive survey design, the study considered 400 MSMEs from major regional urban centres and municipalities. Data were collected using a researcher-administered structured questionnaire, while descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse in its analysis. The relationship between the variables was ascertained using Pearson correlation coefficients. According to the findings, asset-based financing, grants, equity financing, crowdsourcing, and credit guarantees were positively and significantly correlated with the sustainable growth of MSMEs. The study also found a statistically significant negative correlation between traditional bank loans and MSMEs' ability to grow sustainably. According to the study's findings, using more alternative forms of funding such as asset-based financing, equity financing, crowdfunding, credit guarantees and grants would help MSMEs grow more sustainably, whereas using more traditional bank loans would hinder this growth. Thus, asset-based financing, crowdsourcing, equity financing, credit guarantees, and grants constitute the ideal financing framework that MSMEs can adopt to fund their operations and promote their sustainable growth. For this reason, the study was significant in offering an ideal financing framework to improve MSMEs' sustainable growth.

Abstract:

Green financing has emerged as a critical tool for promoting sustainable development and addressing environmental challenges. This study focuses on the state of green financing in Pakistan and the challenges and recommendations for promoting green financing in the country. The study finds that green financing has the potential to mobilize capital towards environmentally sustainable projects and reduce the country's carbon footprint. However, green financing in Pakistan faces a number of challenges, including a lack of awareness, limited private sector participation, insufficient financial support, and a lack of standardization. To address these challenges, the study recommends increasing awareness, encouraging private sector participation, providing financial support, and standardizing definitions and methodologies. The study concludes that with continued efforts and collaboration, it is possible to overcome the challenges facing green financing in Pakistan and to mobilize capital towards a more sustainable future.

Abstract:

The article analyzes Canadian sustainable development policy and Canada’s experiences in implementing sustainable financing mechanisms. It is concluded that accelerated development of sustainable financing mechanisms is favored by large Canadian financial institutions based mainly in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. It is also noted that sustainable finance will increasingly discriminate in terms of access to financial resources enterprises, industries, regions and countries that do not meet the criteria of sustainability. Sustainable finance mechanisms could be also used as instruments of interstate, intersectoral and corporate competition.

Abstract:

Introduction. The COVID-19 pandemic and the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation have created many difficulties for doing business in Ukraine. However, despite the existing challenges, representatives of domestic business continue to adhere to the standards of sustainable development. In turn, financial institutions, as well as the financial regulator, continue to stimulate mechanisms and develop trends in sustainable financing. Thus, the National Bank presented the Policy on the development of sustainable financing for the period until 2025. The development of the policy was carried out in the framework of cooperation with the International Finance Corporation, whose experts emphasized the need to develop a roadmap for sustainable financing, which will allow combining the capabilities of the private and public sectors in order to strengthen the practices of sustainable financing with the support of the state. Accordingly, the implementation of sustainable development initiatives in the financial sphere requires state support, and also involves the application of the experience of international organizations and the study of successful international practices of sustainable financing. Problem Statement. Assessment of the role of international organizations in the development of tools for sustainable financing at the level of national economies. The purpose is to substantiate the essential characteristics of sustainable financing tools, evaluate successful practices of strengthening sustainable financing within the framework of initiatives of international and European organizations with the aim of applying them in the process of building a domestic sustainable financing policy and strategy, forming and applying roadmaps for financing sustainable development priorities based on innovative tools. Methods. General scientific and special methods were used, in particular: scientific abstraction and epistemological (content) analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction, analogies and systematization, system-structural analysis, expert evaluation method, index method and grouping method. Results. The article examines the modern characteristics of sustainable financing and its evolution, the typology of sustainable financing. The basics of the spread of sustainable financing practices in Europe, as well as the essential characteristics of sustainable financing instruments (social and green bonds, social and green loans, sustainable development bonds and loans) are considered. An assessment of the volume and distribution of sustainable development financing instruments at the international level was made. At the international level, in connection with the diversification of the priority areas of attracting financial resources by the World Bank Group, there was a need to create separate organizations aimed at financing the priorities of sustainable development. In particular, one of such separate institutions is the International Finance Corporation (IFC). Accordingly, the article emphasizes the inclusive business model of IFC. In turn, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) was created based on the combined efforts of a number of countries around the world, the European Union (EU) and the European Investment Bank (EIB). The article focuses on the strategic areas of activity and products of the EBRD. A guide to the application of international experience of sustainable financing in Ukraine was considered. Conclusions. Thus, the study of the initiatives of international organizations in the development of sustainable financing tools makes it possible to draw a conclusion about the role of the interaction of the state, business and international organizations in order to accumulate efforts to strengthen sustainable financing through the use of innovative tools, the creation of appropriate policies and the development of sustainable development roadmaps. In Ukraine, the policy of sustainable financing is based on the cooperation of the NBU and the IFC and is implemented through a road map, which is of an applied nature and is intended to monitor the business activity of the NBU in terms of the formation of predictable and stable regulatory foundations with the aim of spreading sustainable financing in the country with specific time norms and taking into account the need to ensure the consistency and adaptability of the banking system and non-bank financial institutions to changes.

Abstract:

Subject. The article addresses theoretical and practical lessons learned in transaction structuring in the ESG segment. Objectives. The aim is to design a structured product (SP) of sustainable financing (ESG SP), and provide rationale for its effectiveness in investment strategies of responsible investors. Methods. The study employs general scientific research methods through logical, comparative, and statistical analysis in the process of analyzing foreign practice, as well as scientific publications by domestic and foreign authors. Results. Our analysis confirmed the assumption that structuring financial products in the sustainable financing market will increase capital inflows and increase its liquidity, which will have a positive impact on the availability of financial resources for issuers pursuing sustainable development goals. The findings indicate an increased interest in structured ESG products in all three categories against the background of the "merger" of securitized products with ESG products. There is a trend in the development of SP of a "charitable orientation". It is necessary to develop a new ESG index that most accurately reflects the ESG vector of companies as the basis of structured ESG products. Testing the presented ESG SP demonstrated prospects of this tool for responsible investors. Conclusions. In the current financial market environment and the expanding variety of financial instruments, structured ESG products with their inherent advantages and risks will be in demand.

Abstract:

The transformation of the energy system is among the most relevant topics of the current public debate in the German-speaking realm. Crowdfunding is suitable for promoting sustainable development, such as financing renewable energies. We investigate success determinants of financial-return crowdfunding to understand how this financing technique can contribute to realizing sustainable development, such as the energy transition. We conduct a cross-platform study and consider sustainably oriented campaigns to answer two research questions: First, what determinants influence financial-return crowdfunding success? Second, how does a sustainable orientation affect these success determinants? We rely on signaling theory to investigate the effect of quality signals. We consider four meta-platforms that aggregate campaigns with sustainable and other funding purposes, obtaining a dataset of 434 financial-return crowdfunding campaigns, mainly from Austria and Germany. We use hierarchical linear regression models for our statistical analysis. Our findings indicate that sustainable orientation alone does not significantly affect crowdfunding success. Entrepreneurs can increase their chances of campaign success by raising the interest rate unless their campaign has a sustainable orientation. In sustainably oriented campaigns, the effect of the interest rate is compensated. Finally, we find no significant evidence suggesting that the campaign duration affects sustainable or non-sustainable crowdfunding success.

Abstract:

Sustainable supply chain financing has emerged as a pivotal strategy in contemporary business paradigms, aiming to harmonize economic growth with environmental stewardship and social responsibility. This review delves into the integration of banking mechanisms within sustainable supply chain financing models to foster enhanced sustainability across diverse industries. In recent years, the concept of sustainability has gained momentum, prompting organizations to reevaluate their operational frameworks to mitigate environmental impacts and address societal concerns. Supply chain financing, a financial tool facilitating transactions among interconnected entities within the supply chain, plays a crucial role in advancing sustainability objectives. By integrating banking institutions into these models, businesses can leverage financial expertise, resources, and networks to bolster sustainable practices throughout the supply chain. This review explores various dimensions of sustainable supply chain financing models, highlighting the significance of banking integration. Firstly, it elucidates the evolving landscape of sustainability in supply chains, emphasizing the imperative for concerted efforts to reconcile profitability with environmental preservation and social welfare. Secondly, it examines the multifaceted benefits of integrating banking institutions into supply chain financing mechanisms, including access to capital, risk mitigation, and expertise in sustainable finance. Moreover, the review discusses the emergence of innovative financial instruments such as green bonds, sustainability-linked loans, and supply chain finance programs tailored to promote sustainability goals. These instruments not only provide financial incentives for sustainable initiatives but also foster transparency and accountability throughout the supply chain ecosystem. Furthermore, the review addresses challenges and opportunities associated with integrating banking into sustainable supply chain financing, including regulatory complexities, technological advancements, and stakeholder collaboration. It underscores the need for strategic partnerships between businesses, financial institutions, and regulatory bodies to navigate these challenges effectively and realize the full potential of sustainable supply chain financing. The integration of banking institutions into sustainable supply chain financing models presents a promising avenue for advancing sustainability agendas across industries. By harnessing financial innovation and collaboration, organizations can foster resilience, efficiency, and ethical conduct within their supply chains, contributing to a more sustainable and inclusive global economy.

Abstract:

The article begins by highlighting the global paradigm shift towards sustainable development. It requires companies of all scales and industries to take a comprehensive approach to implementing sustainability principles into their strategic management systems. The authors define sustainable development as a balanced approach to economic, social, and environmental spheres that allows meeting present needs without compromising future generations. Achieving sustainable development goals necessitates significant investments and a well-grounded financing strategy. In this context, determining an effective, sustainable development financing strategy for a company becomes a critical task that should be aligned with the corporate strategy defining the company’s long-term development goals. The authors review research on financing sustainable development by domestic and foreign scholars. They synthesize the primary approaches, including studying green financing instruments, developing financial sustainability strategies, implementing sustainable financial management systems, and shaping state financial policies to foster sustainability. The theoretical section analyzes the role of finance in enabling sustainable development through resource valuation, distribution, and redistribution mechanisms. The authors comprehensively analyze internal and external factors influencing a company’s activities to determine specific sustainable development goals, assess required investments, develop an optimal mix of financing sources with timelines, and design risk mitigation measures. The paper outlines key areas for financing sustainable development initiatives at the company level, such as implementing sustainability priorities, accounting for sustainability factors, developing organizational sustainability management systems, adopting clean technologies, and implementing social programs. A conceptual framework for a financial mechanism to support a company’s strategic sustainable development is proposed. An important aspect is to ensure proper communication about the results achieved and progress in sustainable development, which will help increase the company’s credibility and reputation. Keywords: sustainable development, financial instruments, financial mechanism, impact investing, enterprise strategy.

Abstract:

Business and Sustainable Finance have taken a prominent place in the global political agenda in recent years. This is due to the alarming “turbulence” that the global economy is experiencing because of climate change, the Covid-19 pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine war, and the recent Israel-Palestine conflict.These rapid changes have made companies and organizations increasingly aware of their responsibility to society regarding the utilization of resources and the environment to generate economic prosperity. Sustainable financing has become a key concept in the global financial environment, transforming the way businesses and institutions conceive and act in relation to investment and capital distribution. This financing is nothing more than an approach that seeks to balance financial objectives with environmental, social, and governance considerations. This is a completely different approach from traditional finance, where profit maximization was the primary goal of every decision-making process. Currently, sustainable financing encompasses a perfect coordination between financial prosperity, social well-being, and environmental protection. According to United Nations summit for the adoption of the post-2015 development agenda, 2015, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals seek to build on the Millennium Development Goals and complete what they did not achieve.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop an investment valuation model using the mezzanine debt mechanism based on blue bonds that explicitly allude to public–private partnerships (P3s) and project finance (PF). Additionally, this study proposes the financial captured value (FCV) theory for measuring how much financial value lenders may capture by becoming sponsors through financing of sustainable infrastructure systems (SIS). Design/methodology/approach The investment valuation model was validated through the Aguas Claras wastewater treatment plant as a case study. Findings The empirical results show that lenders may capture financial value by converting outstanding debt into equity shares throughout the operation and maintenance stage. Furthermore, case study results provide new insights into the implications of the debt–equity conversion ratio on the relationship between the sponsors’ internal rate of return and the FCV. Research limitations/implications The most significant limitation is the lack of primary and secondary information on blue bonds. Thus, robust statistical analyses to contrast results were not possible. Practical implications Researchers and practising professionals can improve their understanding of how mezzanine debt, P3s and PF into an investment valuation model allows financing SIS using a non-conventional financial mechanism. The recommendations will benefit both the academia as well infrastructure industry in bridging the gap between design theory and practice. Originality/value Sustainability components have not been addressed explicitly or combined in the financing’s structuring. Therefore, the investment valuation model could be considered a novel methodology for decision making related to financing and investment of SIS.

Abstract:

Considering the existing funding conditionalities in India, the small and medium enterprises have to face stringent norms as sustainable financing requirements based on Environment, Society and Governance (ESG) disclosures are becoming mandatory for every organization worldwide. The onus still turns to be more intense than ever for the small and medium enterprises (SMEs). The main purpose of this paper is to warn SMEs of the upcoming sustainable financing conditionalities and develop a clear understanding among the SMEs on why they should adapt sustainable financing norms and be resilient towards sustainable financing and ESG disclosures. This paper also tends to inspire SMEs for entrepreneurial growth by striking a balance between their financial requirements and mandatory obligations to benefit themselves, society and the Indian economy. Moreover, this paper focuses on the conceptual stipulation and early adaption of sustainable finance framework by the SMEs and strives to fathom the gap between the sustainable financing realities and the expected level of SMEs’ exposure to sustainable financing and mandatory ESG disclosures. The research methodology identifies seven such areas interconnecting the sustainable financing and UN sustainable development goals (SDGs); Environment (Climate action & Carbon tax), Society (Sustainable Consumption & Externalities), Business (Sustainable Production) and Governance (Green finance, & ESG disclosures) and investigates to find the gap between the perception and expectation of SMEs about the mandatory requirements for sustainable financing and sustainability adaption in India.

The article examines the advantages of cluster approaches in the fruit and vegetable sector. Foreign experiences related to the development and financing of fruit and vegetable clusters have been analyzed. Additional financial resources are needed for the development of high-tech industries and innovative projects related to the cultivation, harvesting, storage, processing, delivery and sale of fruit and vegetable products. Traditional and modern sources of financing investment projects in the field of fruit and vegetable growing are considered in this article. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the possibilities of alternative means of venture financing based on crowdfunding. In order to form and develop the innovative sector in Uzbekistan, conclusionsare given on supporting small businesses in agribusiness. As a result of the observations, crowdfunding is considered one of the most common sources of alternative financing in developed countries due to the possibility of attracting resources to new promising projects based on high risk. The development of the crowdfunding system and directions aimed at supporting advanced investment projects were analyzed. A comparison with Jakhan's experience was described, legal aspects of the problem were considered. According to the results of the research, the problems hindering the introduction of new models of venture financing into the activities of fruit and vegetable clusters were studied, and the prospects for the development of the industry were considered.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT: Unstable economic conditions and high uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine have made it difficult for global economic recovery. Banks has an important role in the economy to support the implementation of a sustainable economy through the disbursement of sustainable financing. The bank expects sustainability financing has a positive impact on financial performance. It can attract investors because one of the main priorities of investors at this time is a sustainable business. The study uses 68 banks from G-20-member countri3es and several countries in ASEAN that are not included in the G-20 from 2019 to 2021 performance. In assessing the impact of the disbursement of sustainable financing on financial performance (using the ratio of non-performing loans, net interest margin, and capital adequacy ratio as financial performance variables), the authors use panel data regression, while to assess the impact of sustainable financing distribution on ESG performance using binary logistic regression. The results show that there is a significant positive impact from the distribution of sustainable financing on net interest margins and the capital adequacy ratio, and a significant negative impact on the non-performing loans ratio. In addition, this study's results also show a significant positive impact on improving ESG performance. This shows that by the disbursement of sustainable financing, banks will get a positive impact on financial performance and can attract investors.

Abstract:

The market for financial instruments for sustainable finance has enormous growth potential. So far, Ukrainian banks adhere to a passive strategy in sustainable financing, which, in contrast to the active strategy, assigns banks the role of an agent in the implementation of national or international programs. Moreover, ‘green’ financing at the state level is seen as synonymous with sustainable finance. Lending to energy efficiency projects for businesses and households dominates among all areas of sustainable financing. Banks with local capital and especially state-owned banks are losing access to wholesale borrowing markets. The dependence of many Ukrainian banks on the target funds of international lenders for the development of sustainable financing weakens national financial security in the absence of large-scale national programs. It is expedient at the level of the Government of Ukraine to develop a program to intensify sustainable financing, with an emphasis on green and social impact and implementation through state banks. Sustainable financing should not exacerbate structural imbalances due to the curtailment of lending to sectors that have accumulated problems with adherence to environmental standards, social norms and corporate governance. The National Bank as a regulator and supervisor is able to act as a catalyst for the development of sustainable finance in Ukraine, with adoption of relevant standards harmonised with EU taxonomy.

Abstract:

The aim of the article is to explore the level of development and maturity of the concept of sustainable financing, examine its components and defining characteristics, and assess the trends in its development. Several research questions have been formulated: What is the essential content of the definition of «sustainable financing», and what evolutionary changes have occurred in the conceptual approach to financing sustainable development? What can be identified as the peculiarities of the concept of sustainable financing and the content and changes in its main components? What is the current state of development of the global and European sustainable investing market and its prospects for development? It was established that evolution of the concept has led to fundamental shifts in the understanding of investment principles and distinctions between responsible investing and sustainable development investing based on ESG principles: under the former approach, the goal of financial market participants is to mitigate the risks associated with transitioning to sustainable development, while under the second approach - to benefit from the realization of sustainable development opportunities. The opinion is expressed that based on the set of signs and patterns, it is possible to state a break in the existing system of views on capital allocation processes in financial markets, and according to the degree of maturity, this break indicates the transition from the "concept" to the "paradigm" of sustainable financing. It is argued that the peculiarities of sustainable financing are determined by its components, its goal function, the diverse spectrum of financial market participants, and the financial instruments. Sustainable finance has been found to help transform both economies and societies through more responsible development and investment around the world, but its development trends in recent years have been influenced by geopolitical factors such as pandemics and war.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to show how much green finance—which includes investments in renewable energy, sustainable infrastructure, green technology, social investment, and green bonds—can help a sample of Iraqi bank employees achieve sustainable financial performance, including accounting, marketing, and comprehensive performance. The research problem was that the banking system and the government must work together effectively to provide the required financial tools, such as low-cost bank loans and exemptions from environmental taxes, in order to achieve sustainable financial performance and make the shift to a green economy. By examining the connection between these factors, two primary hypotheses were created to gauge the degree of influence and linkage. The primary instrument for gathering information pertaining to the field component of the study was the questionnaire form. There were 179 people in the sample. The study included a variety of statistical techniques, including standard deviations, arithmetic averages, and structural equation modeling with the aid of statistical tools (spss.var.29, amos.var.26). The most significant of the conclusions drawn was that green financing has a morally beneficial effect on sustainable financial performance.

Abstract:

This study examines the relationship between sustainable financing and financial risk management of Chinese financial institutions, using data from Chinese banks. Financial risk management is a comprehensive measure of operating performance, asset quality and capital adequacy ratio. The structural vector auto-regression model determines the relationship between two variables. The positive shock of sustainable financing business negatively impacts the financial risk management of banks. In contrast, positive shock of banks’ financial risk management positively affects sustainable financing. Further subdivision of the sample revealed that sustainable financing does not always negatively impact the financial risk management of large state-owned banks. However, the positive shock of financial risk management reduces urban banks’ green credit proportions. The results are consistent whenever compared between the empirical outcome of the entire sample and the sample consisting of national joint stock bank accounts. This comparison helps eliminate the possibility of a biased outcome as a major portion of the sample is from a national joint-stock bank account. Apart from data limitations, the results of the sub-sample test are influenced due to the difference in deposit and loan interest rates, as well as different ownership structures of banks.

Abstract:

This paper contends that carving out pathways to finance the sustainable development goal (SDG) agenda entails to reconsider tacit assumptions regarding the functioning of financial systems. We first use a history of economic thought perspective to demonstrate the flaws of the loanable fund theory, which has come to underlie SDG finance strategies. We then introduce the alternative endogenous money theory using a consistent theoretical and accounting framework. This allows us to identify and discuss a set of financing mechanisms that would permit to bridge the SDG budget gap. These mechanisms include the issuing of sovereign green bonds, the modification of the European Central Bank’s collateral framework, changes in capital adequacy ratios, a market of SDG lending certificates and the introduction of rediscounting policies. We back up the discussion with examples from economic history.

ABSTRACTThis research constructs the concept of assitallassi (mutual support) applied by the patorani community for sustainable financing accounting. The research method used is a qualitative method with an interpretive paradigm. For the data collection, the researchers used two approaches simultaneously, namely institutional and ethno-methodological. The researchers chose qualitative data and obtained data directly from the field (primary data) as research data. Accounting practice begins with recording the funding and profit-sharing of the catch during a season. The important conclusion of this research is that accounting is related to material and no material aspects. The accounting system for financing and profit-sharing in the community of Patorani is not absolute but tailored to needs. It all depends on the agreement of all parties during the assikko' kana (hybrid contract).ABSTRAKPenelitian ini mengkonstruksi konsep assitallassi (Saling menghidupi) yang diterapkan oleh komunitas patorani untuk akuntansi pembiayaan berkelanjutan.

Abstract:

We propose that national governments could issue bonds whose interest payments are linked to green net national product (gNNP) or, almost equivalently, to inclusive wealth. The main intention of this new financial instrument is to entice investors and the national government to invest in human and natural capital for which the corresponding financial assets currently do not exist. As the concept of wealth expands to include human and natural capital, so should the corresponding assets side in the balance sheet of nations. While the argument for gross national product (GNP)–linked bonds focuses on trimming public debt toward fiscal sustainability, the proposed bonds aim to ensure long-term sustainability. The theoretical link associated with welfare economics is also more plausible. Moreover, it could lead to the virtuous cycle of increased government expenditure directed toward inclusive wealth, expanding tax revenue, increased coupon payment to investors, and increased social well-being.

Abstract:

This paper examines transitioning from a traditional capital system to a more modern and sustainable financing system. Green financing or green microfinance is one of the efforts to provide opportunities for micro-scale businesses initiated by women to start businesses in the energy sector. Green financing is considered part of financial inclusion, providing business financing schemes oriented towards ecological conservation values. This research considers the context of opportunities and potential obstacles women face in accessing green financing. A literature study was conducted to describe microfinance schemes by drawing closer to efforts to mainstream gender and efforts to transition to a more sustainable financial system. At least several stages need to be passed to transition the financial system toward a more gender-friendly and sustainable direction. First, it is important to socialize the awareness-raising program on green entrepreneurship for women more massively. Second, steps to develop the capacity of women entrepreneurs should be accompanied by preparing business proposals to apply for bank financing, which is part of financial literacy education. Business mentorship programs from the government for women who have micro-scale businesses are also needed. Such technical assistance interventions will be the beginning of preparation for micro-enterprises to start consistently opening a sustainable business. This paper finds that the green financing strategy will ultimately help transition business models that seek to integrate efforts to save the ecology with business schemes, including developing a gender-friendly sustainable business ecosystem.

Abstract:

Almost all banks established green banking units in time, though there is a lack of seriousness in implementing green banking guidelines set by Bangladesh Bank. In the present situation, climate change, sustainability, environment, etc., have become major global concerns. There is no other planet in the universe for human beings and other animal habitats with ecological harmony. This study aims to examine the green financing (GF) and sustainable financing (SF) status and role of central bank in Bangladesh. This study gathered mainly secondary data from Bangladesh Bank (BB) website in 2023 and 2024 and used MS-excel software for tabulating, analyzing and comparing results. This study finds 22 banks achieved GF target where UCB PLC stood in the top position at 36.21%, next to Jamuna Bank PLC at 29.85%, IBB PLC at 22.42%, and Bank Asia stood at the end at 5.47%. On the other hand, 17 commercial banks fulfill the SF target of the total term loan disbursement set by Bangladesh Bank. It is observed that in Q4, 2023, 17 banks out of 61 had exposure to green finance, where 16 banks were PCBs. Only Bangladesh Krishi Bank occupied the top position, accounting for 56.48% of sustainable finance next to NRB Bank PLC 42.86%, BRAC Bank PLC 41.32%, etc., and Jamuna Bank PLC stood last position at 21.57%. The study also found the total target achieved by banks was 9.09% in GF and 27.24% in SF, which exceeded the target set by the Bangladesh bank and it is a milestone to achieve SDGs set by the united nations (UN) by 2030.

Abstract:

The sustainability of forest ecosystems is key to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. However, the rate of deforestation and degradation of forest ecosystems is unprecedented, and the need for the investments needed to implement sustainable forest management mechanisms is substantial. The protection of natural forests is directly dependent on the availability of financial resources for sustainable forest management. At present, there is a lack of knowledge about innovative financing mechanisms for sustainable forest management that are suitable for implementation in developing markets where large-scale deforestation occurs. The article describes financial instruments that provide investment in forestry, analyzes the arguments in favor of investing in intensive forest management projects. Mechanisms for financing sustainable forest management programmes through the issuance of forest bonds were also considered. Forest bonds are a more appropriate financial instrument for financing sustainable forest management than traditional green bonds. A taxonomy is provided Projects implemented within the framework of intensive forest management programmes for which forest bonds can be issued. The purpose of this article is to develop academic research aimed at studying forest green bonds and, more generally, green market financing mechanisms for sustainable forest management.

Abstract:

Tourism plays a vital role in generating revenue for Georgia. The influx of tourists contributes to various sectors of the economy, including accommodation, transportation, food and beverage services, entertainment, and retail. Furthermore, tourism can have a multiplier effect on the economy. When tourists spend money in Georgia, it circulates through the economy, generating income for various businesses and individuals. This increased economic activity leads to further job creation, stimulates investment, and contributes to the overall development of the country. Additionally, tourism also generates indirect revenue through associated sectors such as agriculture, construction, and manufacturing, which cater to the needs of tourists and the tourism industry. In the process of the research are used general scientific methods (systemic, structural, functional) and private methods (graphic and those of conformity). Official statistical data existing in the country as well as the data and evaluations officially published by international organizations are also used. Based on the research done we would like to provide several recommendations aiming to provide a foundation for improving the financing of sustainable tourism in Georgia, enabling the region to develop and support tourism initiatives that are economically viable, socially inclusive, and environmentally responsible.

Abstract:

Today, humanity is at a stage where further development is possible only if economic, environmental and social factors are effectively combined to ensure sustainable development of the society. Their implementation largely depends on the available financial resources. The COVID-19 pandemic and the russian federation’s war against Ukraine have increased the risk of a divergence between the developed and developing countries. The article notes that there are various forms of sustainability, including environmental (biodiversity conservation), economic (achieving a balance between the economic efficiency of enterprises and environmental issues) and social (ensuring social justice). The factors that have led to an increase in the financing gap for sustainable development goals are outlined: a decline in income in developing countries; an increase in public spending in these countries. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the russian-Ukrainian war on the financial development of countries is determined. It is established that in order to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, developing countries need additional funding, which can come from four sources: domestic public resources (or revenues), international public resources, domestic private resources or international private resources. Sources of external financing include international trade, foreign direct investment and other private flows (from businesses and individuals), international financial and technical cooperation, and external debt. One of the priority domestic sources of financing is tax revenues. Combating tax evasion and illicit financial flows is also important. Factors to facilitate the strategic planning and financing for sustainable development at the national and regional levels in Ukraine include: developing an integrated national financial system; conducting a rapid integrated assessment of the inclusion of sustainable development goals in national and subnational planning; reviewing of all current methods of financing sustainable development; and assessing the system of budgeting for sustainable development. The paper also reflects the key points of the EBA's research on sustainable development in Ukraine.

Abstract:

Environmental degradation and macroeconomic instability have a negative impact on the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals of the blue economy strategy. Initiatives by the international community are aimed at developing innovative financial mechanisms aimed at jointly addressing these problems. Financial instruments aimed at the cancellation of all or part of sovereign debt in exchange for channelling financing into blue economy projects can improve environmental sustainability and reduce the public debt of developing countries and thus contribute to the stabilization of the international financial system. This research article is an attempt to identify and analyze the applicability of innovative mechanisms for sustainable financing of the blue economy, given its importance for achieving sustainable development goals. Debt-for-nature swapping is most effective in situations where alternative financing instruments are limited and/or when governments are interested in improving credit ratings. The financial instruments of sustainable financing, which underpin the debt-for-nature swap mechanism, are an effective tool for improving the country’s credit rating and at the same time preserving natural ecosystems. In order to identify projects that meet the criteria for participation in debt exchange programs, the author proposes a model for assessing the compliance of investment projects with the criteria of sustainable blue financing.

Abstract:

This paper explores the financing framework for sustainable development in Uruguay, an emerging economy, and examines whether available financing instruments contribute to achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs) in which significant progress is still required in this country. Reports, policy documents and academic literature were reviewed to determine the types of sustainable development financing instruments available, and to analyse the challenges facing emerging economies in this regard. In addition, the financing programmes available from the public sector, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), the financial sector and multilateral credit agencies were examined. The results obtained show that the main financing sources for sustainable development are located within the public sector due to the absence of a developed financial market, and that the existing financial instruments do not address the SDGs where most attention is required. The latter circumstances make it challenging to achieve these SDGs in Uruguay. The study findings highlight the need for greater coordination among all parties to make efficient use of the scarce resources available to an emerging economy and thus enable it to meet its SDGs.

Abstract:

In a scientific context, the main focus of sustainable supply chain management is on the creation and optimization of product and information flows; however, the management of financial flows receives insufficient attention. All effectively developed supply chain activities may collapse as a result of inadequate management of sustainable supply chain financial processes. In order to successfully develop systematically functioning processes of the international supply chain, it is necessary to analyze how to apply financing instruments in a targeted and effective manner. Adequate financing of the sustainable supply chain is the effect of great prospects and competitive advantage not only on a national scale but also in international markets. The aim of this research was to assess the importance of financing instruments used in international sustainable supply chain finance. Correlation-regression analysis was chosen for the research, which was designed to assess the factors of financial instruments of the dairy industry sustainable supply chain using the example of a company. The results showed that the key factor in the supply chain processes of the dairy products production company was the turnover ratio of buyers’ debts; therefore, in order for the company to improve the indicators of the sustainable supply chain, it should allocate more financing specifically to the turnover ratio of buyers’ debts.

Abstract:

Sustainable infrastructure development is critical for addressing emerging markets' economic, social, and environmental challenges. However, significant financing gaps hinder the progress of such initiatives. This paper explores the role of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) as innovative financing instruments for sustainable infrastructure projects in these regions. It begins by outlining the unique challenges and opportunities in sustainable infrastructure financing, highlighting the importance of financial markets in bridging funding deficits. The paper then delves into ETFs' structural features and mechanisms, emphasizing their potential to support long-term, diversified, and accessible investments. A conceptual framework is proposed, linking ETF design to the specific requirements of sustainable infrastructure while addressing critical factors such as regulatory support, ESG integration, and investor education. The framework also identifies potential risks and barriers, such as market maturity and transparency concerns. Finally, actionable recommendations are provided for policymakers, financial institutions, and stakeholders to optimize the deployment of ETFs for financing sustainable infrastructure. By leveraging ETFs effectively, emerging markets can enhance their resilience and achieve balanced development aligned with global sustainability goals.

Abstract:

Abstract The most essential factors should be defined to increase the effectiveness of sustainable energy financing. Otherwise, businesses may face some financial and operational problems due to not using resources effectively. However, only a limited number of studies in the literature have identified these important factors. This situation shows a need for a new study to determine the variables that have the greatest impact on the effectiveness of sustainable energy financing. Thus, the purpose of this study is to identify significant determinants that affect the effectiveness of sustainable energy financing. For this situation, a 3-stage model is constructed to reach this purpose. The first stage prioritizes the experts with the help of artificial intelligence (AI). The second stage weights the assessment criteria of sustainable energy financing by quantum spherical fuzzy M-SWARA. Finally, the balanced scorecard-based project priorities of sustainable energy financing are ranked with quantum spherical fuzzy WASPAS. The main contribution of this study is that a detailed evaluation is performed to understand significant strategies for the improvements of sustainable energy financing with a novel model. Calculation of the expert weights with AI increases the quality and originality of the model. Similarly, considering M-SWARA, WASPAS, quantum theory, and spherical fuzzy sets also increases the effectiveness of the model because of managing uncertainties more effectively. The technical competence of the enterprise and Funding diversification are found as the most important items in increasing the effectiveness of sustainable energy financing. Additionally, according to the ranking results, it is determined that financial issues and customer needs are the most significant alternatives.

Abstract:

Energy access remains a significant challenge for underserved communities globally, with financial exclusion often being a barrier to the adoption of clean energy solutions. This paper explores the integration of energy financing models with financial inclusion strategies, focusing on how these models address energy poverty and promote socio-economic development. It emphasizes the importance of sustainable business models, such as microfinance, pay-as-you-go systems, crowdfunding, and impact investing, in enabling underserved communities to access renewable energy technologies. The paper also discusses the barriers to achieving financial inclusion in energy access, including high costs, lack of infrastructure, and inadequate financial products tailored to low-income populations. Furthermore, it highlights the critical role of policy and regulation in creating an enabling environment for energy financing and the opportunities provided by technology and data analytics in reducing transaction costs and improving access to financing. Through an examination of innovative financing models, the paper demonstrates how financial inclusion can lead to improved energy access, enhanced economic empowerment, and long-term sustainability. The study concludes with recommendations for future research on digital finance solutions, the impact of specific financing models, and the integration of social, environmental, and financial goals in energy financing. These insights provide a roadmap for promoting financial inclusion and sustainable energy practices in underserved communities.

Abstract:

This study examines the impact of Green Financing on Sustainable Housing Development, focusing on the mediating role of Policy Support. As urbanization accelerates, particularly in developing countries, the need for sustainable housing solutions intensifies. Green Financing, which funds environmentally friendly projects, is considered a potential driver of sustainable housing, though its success depends on supportive policies. Using a quantitative approach and structural equation modeling (SEM), the study analyzes data from 500 stakeholders in the housing sector, including policymakers, financial institutions, and developers. Results show that Green Financing significantly boosts Policy Support (path coefficient = 0.832, t-statistic = 31.150, p-value = 0.000), and also has a positive effect on Sustainable Housing Development (path coefficient = 0.636, t-statistic = 9.114, p-value = 0.000).
