The purpose of this study is to examine whether green accounting influences firm value on companies in the ASEAN countries that have won the Asia Sustainability Reporting Awards 2021. The study utilized the exploratory quantitative method using secondary data, namely financial reports, sustainability reports, and ESG Scoring on the respective company websites of 15 Companies that have won the Asia Sustainability Reporting Awards 2021. Based on the observation years 2017-2021 of the published annual reports, this study shows that application of green accounting reporting with the dimensions of energy consumption have no significant effect on firm value using the Economic Creation Value Added (EVA) as proxy. This study shows that application of green accounting reporting with the dimensions of water consumption has a significant negative effect on EVA creation from companies in the Asia Sustainability Reporting List Awards. This study also shows that application of green accounting reporting with emission dimensions has a significant effect at a significance level of 10% with a positive direction towards EVA creation from companies in the Asia Sustainability Reporting List Awards. The findings in this study shed some lights on the importance of green accounting towards firm value of public listed companies in the ASEAN countries. The findings in this study are expected to be able to make a positive contribution to stakeholders’ interests and policies relating to other financial information required by stakeholders.

“…There is conflicting empirical evidence about the impact of financial education and information provided on saving literacy (Lusardi, 2004). Furthermore, even when studies show a considerable benefit of financial education on savings, the route behind this effect is frequently poorly understood (Anne Karani Iswan, Dr. Robert Arasa, 2020; Guellil and Benhabib, 2022;Hye, 2022;Alnaa and Matey, 2022).…”

The transfer of knowledge is critical for a company to expand and transform. Regarding a country's socioeconomic development, micro-enterprises are crucial for creating employment opportunities and reducing poverty. However, micro-enterprises ability to repay their debts is influenced by various factors, with saving literacy and knowledge transfer being essential components in enhancing their repayment capacity. To address the knowledge transfer gap, this study examined the factors affecting the ability of Malaysian micro-enterprises to repay their debts, including financial management, with data collected from 127 micro-enterprises in Klang Valley. The study utilized the PLS-SEM technique to analyze the data and test hypotheses to achieve research objectives, with the results showing that saving literacy and the role of knowledge transfer as a mediator positively impact micro-enterprises' ability to repay their debts. This article also provides recommendations for the growth of Malaysia's micro-enterprise sector and suggests the need for additional research in this area.

“…Alternative energies have been widely studied in the literature as a means of improving environmental performance and mitigating the impacts of climate change. Researchers have consistently found that the increased usage of alternative energies can help to reduce CO 2 emissions (Adebayo and Kirikkaleli, 2021;Ayobamiji et al, 2022;Bamisile et al, 2021;Bekun, 2022;Charfeddine and Kahia, 2019;Ehigiamusoe and Dogan, 2022;Gielen et al, 2019;Haldar and Sethi, 2022;Qin et al, 2021;Hao et al, 2021;Hasnisah et al, 2019;Wang et al, 2020;Pata and Caglar, 2021;Sahoo and Sahoo, 2022;Sharif et al, 2020;Vo et al, 2020;Ali et al, 2021;Yuan et al, 2022;Zafar et al, 2019;Agbarha, 2022;Ahmad et al, 2022;Alnaa and Matey, 2022;Belesis et al, 2022;Faisal et al, 2022;Imasuen et al, 2022). Hao et al (2021), for example, found that the increased use of alternative energy sources can help to reduce emissions, which adds to air pollution and negative impacts on human health.…”

Despite increasing recognition of the urgent need to address the impacts of climate change, the global response has been inadequate, and greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise. The role of green financing in addressing this problem is uncertain, as it remains in its early stages of development and implementation. Furthermore, the relationship between green financing, alternative energies, and environmental performance is complex and not well understood. This study examines the potential of green financing as a tool for mitigating the effects of climate change and promoting sustainable development. Assessing the effectiveness of green financing as a means of improving environmental performance, and the role of alternative energies in this relationship. This study aims to provide recommendations for policymakers, businesses, and other stakeholders on how to effectively leverage green financing to promote sustainable development and address the impacts of climate change. Using Quantile regression approach, this study finds that green finance, international trade, GDP and alternative energies are important determinants of CO2 emissions of China. We find that green finance, and alternative energies have negative location coefficients, which imply that these factors abate CO2 emissions. On the contrary, the location coefficient of international trade and GDP are positive, which suggest that these factors increase CO2 emissions of China. The negative coefficient of green finance for all quantiles implies that green finance is beneficial for environmental performance of China.
