This study analyzes the key drivers (commitment, integration of big data, green supply chain management, and green human resource practices) of sustainable capabilities and the influence to which these sustainable capabilities impact the banks' environmental and financial performance. Additionally, this study analyzes the impact of green management practices on the integration of big data technology with operations. The theory of dynamic capability was deployed to propose and empirically test the conceptual model. Data was collected through a self-administrated survey questionnaire from 319 participants employed at 35 banks located in six ASEAN countries. The findings indicate that big data analytics strategies have an impact on internal processes and banks' sustainable and financial performance. This study indicates that banks committed towards proper data monitoring of its clients achieve operational efficiency and sustainability goals. Moreover, our results confirm that banks practising green innovation strategies experience better environmental and economic performance as the employees of these banks have received advance green human resource training. Finally, our study found that internal and external green supply chain management practices have a positive impact on banks' environmental and financial performance, which confirms that ASEAN banks contributing in reduction of environmental impact through its operations will ultimately experience increased financial performance.

Islamic finance, which may have been considered only in the context of a multitude of trading structures among economists, merits a fresh evaluation in how it dovetails with and supports national economic growth. This study examines the dynamic interaction between Islamic financing and economic growth of Pakistan by employing the unit root test, cointegration test and Granger Causality tests to see whether the Islamic financial system influences the economic growth. For the analysis, time series data of total Islamic financing and real GDP per capita, Islamic financial assets, and population to represent real economic sector were considered. Findings/Originality: This paper finds that a well-functioning Islamic financial system promotes economic growth. It also finds an evidence of a bidirectional relationship between Islamic asset financing and population. It implies that population reinforces Islamic finance, and population attracts Islamic financing.
