“…This is possible because the government provides access to state-owned banks and provides guarantees on the provision of loans (Matuszak et al, 2019). For instance, (Kouki, 2021) discovered that SOEs are more innovative when owned by the state since it removes obstacles to financial support. These findings have come up with the realization that R&D expenditures are influenced by state ownership.…”

In this modern era business and changing landscapes, the construction of a two-tier equity structure within Chinese joint stock companies has proved to be a very innovative and augmented strategy. This paper scrutinizes the unorthodox integration of financial architecture and ecological sustainability by evaluation of this structure through the lens of green finance. The interlacing of the principles of environmental responsibility with mainframes of corporate governance enlightens the unique dynamics and outcomes of the two-tier equity model. This study comprehensively analyses and elucidates how this mainframe facilitates the shareholder interests as they align with long-term ecological objectives. This in turn cultivates a promising environment for sustainable development. As we draw onto the theoretical calculations and perspective supplemented with empirical evidences, this research study gives birth to amenable perspectives that the green finance has the potential to transform the Chinese context by shaping the future trajectory of corporate structures. Using a dataset consisting of Chinese publicly traded companies from 2001-2017, this study investigates how a lack of funding has led to a scarcity of environmentally friendly technologies in China. We also investigate how green finance laws help businesses overcome financial hurdles on the road to eco-friendly innovation. It has been observed that a company's capacity for green innovation decreases as its financial constraints grow, and that privately held businesses are at greater danger of this happening than government-owned ones.

“…Using GMM estimators is appropriate for resolving any possible bias in a dynamic panel (Arellano and Bond 1991;Roodman 2006). GMM estimator has been adopted in several recent corporate studies (Alhazaimeh et al 2014;Holtz-Eakin et al 1988;Issa et al 2021;Kouki 2021;Ezeani et al 2022). Additionally, the GMM estimator is designed for datasets with few periods and many explanatory variables that are less likely to be strictly exogenous and correlated to current realisations of the error (Kim et al 2014;Ezeani et al 2021).…”

This study examines whether there is a relationship between religiosity and voluntary disclosure quality (VD_Q). We utilise a three-dimensional approach to capture the VD_Q on an international sample of 1,484 bank-year observations in 12 countries of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region over 14 years period from 2006 to 2019. Our findings indicate that religiosity is positively associated with banks' VD_Q. Our findings also show that the association between religiosity and VD_Q is more noticeable in banks operating in countries with a low level of legal protection, low level of control of corruption and during the crisis period. We further illustrate that the influence of religiosity is more intense on the spread and usefulness of information dimensions than the quantity dimension. These empirical findings are robust to alternative proxies of religiosity and sample specification. This result supports the notion that religiosity enhances corporate disclosure quality and reduces the asymmetric information gap between managers and outside users of information.

“…The concepts of board gender diversity (BGD) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) have become vitally important in the current era, with its focus on sustainability [ 1 , 2 ], Yarram and Adapa, 2021. BGD is an aspect of corporate governance that has been extensively discussed in the management literature, particularly concerning firms' approaches to social, economic, and environmental issues [ [3] , [4] , [5] ]. Today it serves as an effective corporate governance monitoring device and is regarded as one of the key drivers of sustainability [ 6 ].…”

“…Due to different institutional contexts among countries in terms of culture and the nature of corporate governance regulations [ 17 , 18 ], the effects of BGD on the level of CSR performance can be expected to vary depending on the country and context. Hence, extensive research has been conducted on both CSR and BGD, considering various countries and institutional settings [ 3 , 9 , 19 ]. However, the evolution of the knowledge structure in this field and the connections between the prevailing knowledge bases relating to BGD and CSR in developed and developing countries remain unclear.…”
