The purpose of the article is to evaluate the factors affecting supply chain finance and the influence of supply chain finance on supply chain financing performance and SMEs performance in Vietnam. The study was conducted on 856 small and medium enterprises in Vietnam for 3 consecutive months. The data is processed by Smart PLS 3.3.6 software, the results show that credit quality, supply chain integration, information sharing, and information technology all have a statistically significant impact on supply chain finance. Besides, supply chain finance has a statistically significant impact on supply chain financing performance and SMEs performance. Finally, the innovation capability and the market response capability act as full mediators in the relationship between supply chain finance and supply chain financing performance. Based on the research results, we propose solutions and recommendations to help small and medium enterprises better access capital and improve business performance.

Financial inclusion is fundamental for increasing the nation’s performance and green economy has emerged as one of the dominant factors to ecological sustainability, but how will these two factors connect? This research analyzes the correlation between the two in the case of China, which is undergoing a transformation to a green economy, using state-level statistics from 2008 to 2020 to evaluate the connection between financial inclusion and the green economy. By taking into account the fast-expanding technology banking system, as well as the application of the minimum distance to the weak efficient frontier framework (MinDw), a comprehensive assessment of financial inclusion is created, as is an assessment of green economic productivity. The findings show that the expansion of financial inclusion may contribute to increased green economic proficiency, which is primarily achieved via the tightening of credit restrictions on carbon emitting companies. The results have more consequences for the implementation of a financial development strategy and the maintenance of healthy associations between the state, banking institutions, and businesses.

Although economic growth, globalization, and ecological footprint are extensively researched altogether, however, the literature on the role of financial inclusion, ecological innovation along with growth and globalization is still limited specifically in the context of MENA region. Thereby, The study aims to scrutinize the dynamic association between the above-stated variables while considering a range of statistical estimations and methods. Data is gathered from 1990 to 2017 for the stated panel economies entitled under the MENA region. It is observed that there exists cross-sectional dependence, having stationarity proprieties, and slope heterogeneity for the variables of interest. Furthermore, the findings through CS-ARDL indicate the significant and direct impact of financial inclusion economic growth, and globalization through GDP in creating more environmental issues like EFP. Whereas ecological innovation is significantly playing its role in reducing ED for the selected economies. Finally, robust checks through "Augmented Mean Group and Common Correlated Effect Mean Group" have also revealed consistent findings when examined through CS-ARDL. Besides, various policy implications are also presented in this research.
