While previous studies examined the effect of board gender diversity on dividend policy, we focus on women representation on audit committees. In fact, women membership in board committees reflects their involvement in corporate governance and decision-making, especially in a context where gender diversity is enforced. Overall, our results are in line with the outcome hypothesis and show a positive effect of female representation in audit committees on corporate dividend payouts. Additionally, we show that the size and independence of audit committees are positively related to the dividend payout ratio. Our findings are robust for alternative measures of dividend payments.","PeriodicalId":41466,"journal":{"name":"Green Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70252562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This concept includes those human resource policies aimed at improving employee satisfaction. In this paper, we build on previous research on CSRE by examining its relationship with organizational learning capability (OLC). In addition, to shed light on the link between CSRE and OLC, we introduce explanatory variables such as organizational commitment. In turn, we analyze if OLC may simultaneously increase green innovation (GI). These relationships were tested using structural equation modeling on a sample of 300 companies in the tourism sector. Results confirm that organizational commitment mediates the relationship between CSRE and OLC, and this in turn positively affects GI. These findings uncover an unexplored route to create more sustainable business through organizational behaviors and attitudes promoted by CSRE.","PeriodicalId":41466,"journal":{"name":"Green Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70252345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To the extent that data for all five SDGs were available partial ordering methodology was applied to rank the countries according to their compliance as well as their trend toward compliance. The analyses took simultaneously data for all five SDGs into account to get an overall picture of the prosperity midway through the 15 years period for the 17 UN SDGs. It was disclosed that the ten top countries, i.e., presently best comply with the prosperity goals were Denmark > Austria = Finland = Sweden = Norway > Slovenia > Germany > Portugal > Japan > Iceland, respectively. In the case of the trends, the top ten countries were found to be Germany > Netherlands > Ecuador > Bhutan = Finland = Ireland = Slovak Republic > Czech Republic = Maldives = Malta, respectively. It was further disclosed that SDG 10 (Reduced inequalities) appeared as the most important indicator for the ranking, whereas SDG 9 (Industry, innovation, and infrastructure) appeared as the least important. A similar set of analyses was carried out for country regions. The top regions both in the case of states and trends were the OECD and the high-income countries whereas the bottom of the list was the low-income countries and Africa. The study unambiguously points to SDG 10 (reduced inequalities) as the main focus for the remaining period.","PeriodicalId":41466,"journal":{"name":"Green Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70252530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We assume the higher level of greenness increases investors' participation in IPOs. To this end, we develop the utility function and determine that investors prefer to participate in new issues when firms account for greenness measures. This study proposes the global aspects of green measure: the desired level of greenness a firm maintains. We find that IPOs in our sample are far below the global standards of greenness. This evidence suggests they must adopt the necessary actions to make the environment green. Another significant contribution of this study is to measure the performance of high and low-green IPOs in short- and long-run horizons. This study reveals that high-green IPOs are less underpriced. This study estimates the effect of greenness on initial returns and finds an inverse relationship suggesting that high-green IPOs are less underpriced due to lower risk associated with new issues. In terms of measuring longer-term performance, this study determines that high-green IPOs underperform less than low-green IPOs.","PeriodicalId":41466,"journal":{"name":"Green Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70252359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the perspective of financial asset allocation motivation, this paper explores the impact of financial asset allocation on green innovation based on the data of A-share listed non-financial companies from 2011 to 2021. First, there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between the proportion of financial asset allocation and the green innovation of physical enterprises, that is, as the proportion of financial asset allocation increases, the green innovation output of enterprises first increases and then decreases. After robustness testing, the conclusion still holds. Second, further testing of the intermediary mechanism shows that the moderate holding of short-term financial assets by real enterprises can increase the output of green innovation by alleviating financing constraints, which is manifested as the \"reservoir\" effect. The \"crowding out\" effect plays a leading role when overallocation of financial assets reduces liquidity supply and capital expenditure, which in turn reduces green innovation output. Third, in the test of financial asset allocation preference, it is found that the short-term financial assets held by enterprises mainly play a \"reservoir\" effect, that is, they tend to be \"preventive\" motives. Holding long-term financial assets mainly exerts a \"crowding out\" effect, that is, tends to \"seek profits\" motives. Finally, there are differences in the impact of financial asset allocation on green innovation output among enterprises with different property rights, different monetary policies and different social responsibilities.</p> </abstract>","PeriodicalId":41466,"journal":{"name":"Green Finance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135158319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
