This study aimed to explore the cross-section of digitalization and sustainability in banking and its effect on bank performance. The sample consisted of all of the banks (n = 25) operating in the Republic of Serbia from 2011 to 2020. The research results show that the banks focusing on digitalization and sustainability are profitable, even in the face of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Furthermore, using the Pearson’s correlation, the study shows that the level of investment in digital transformation has a strong relationship with the net result. We advocate that digitainability in banking is an important factor in uncertain times and should be fostered and included in bank strategies in the post-COVID 19 world. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that provides insight into digitainability and bank performance.

“…This sample size is also comparable with prior studies exploring determinants of nonfinancial reporting (Alshbili et al, 2019;Artiach et al, 2010;Orazalin & Mahmood, 2019). In the present study, 4-year period from FY 2015-2016 onward was chosen to investigate the sustainability reporting practices of companies because sustainability reporting has become an increasingly significant consideration for companies after the Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) 2015, 32(5) (f) regulation (Kumar & Prakash, 2020). From FY 2015-2016 onward, this regulation made it mandatory for top 500 listed companies based on market capitalization to disclose Business Responsibility Report (BRR) on environmental and social performance.…”

The purpose of this study is to explore the extent and nature of sustainability disclosure practices of companies from environmentally sensitive industries in India.It further investigates the influence of potential determinants on sustainability information disclosure of the companies. The study analyzed the data of 57 energy and mining companies included in NIFTY500 index at National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) for the period 2016 to 2019. In the present study, environment, social, and governance (ESG) parameters were considered to measure the corporate sustainability disclosure practices. Panel data analysis was conducted to investigate the impact of possible determinants on sustainability reporting. The results indicate that variables, such as firm size, market capitalization, and a standalone sustainability reporting, are positively associated with the sustainability information disclosure of companies. The finding also suggests that policymakers should promote a standalone sustainability reporting based on Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards and also broaden the existing scope of business responsibility reporting in India. Overall findings should help the policymakers and regulators to assess and advance the disclosure reforms to improve sustainability reporting in India.

ABSTRACT- The board of directors, administrators, and top management personnel all play a role in establishing strategies, setting goals, and assigning duties to implementers. One of the primary goals of corporate governance is to increase shareholder value. On this basis, it can be argued that corporate governance is a critical component of any business's long-term viability. The goal of the study was to see how transparency and accountability affected the banking sector's long-term viability. The study was guided by three theories: agency theory, stewardship theory, and stakeholder’s theory, all of which provide important information on corporate governance processes and how different stakeholders' interests are addressed. This study employs a quantitative research methodology. It is used to quantify a problem in quantitative research by generating numerical data or data that can be turned into useable statistics. Transparency, accountability, justice, and responsibility, according to the study, all have a substantial impact on the banking industry's long-term viability. The study suggests that transparency and accountability have a favorable and considerable impact on the banking industry's long-term viability. The result suggesting that all Indonesian banks' management should strictly enforce openness in all operations and activities conducted by workers in order to achieve sustainability.
