Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to submit high-quality research papers to the special issue of “Sustainable Corporate Finance and Risk Management.” Sustainable corporate finance is quickly becoming one of the biggest issues facing the corporate world. Environmental and social issues may threaten the financial and operational viability of any businesses that ignore them. The focus of academic research is shifting from a pure shareholder-centered profitability-oriented view towards a business strategy that aligns risk-return goals with a company’s ESG and CSR policies. Capital flows (capital raising and investment), risk management (insurance and risk assessment), corporate governance (monitoring and incentive), and financial processes (disclosure, valuation, and oversight) all assimilate environmental and social factors to manage risk, promote sustainable growth, and fight for the long-term stability and survival of a business. The goal of this Special Issue is to provide guidelines on how to make these alignments efficient.
Dr. Zhichuan (Frank) Li
Guest Editor
