This paper examines whether green incentives embedded in executive compensation schemes are associated with a reorientation of firms’ innovative activities toward environmentally sustainable technologies. Overall, the findings suggest that executive green incentives are associated with the direction, and not merely the volume, of firms’ innovative activities, highlighting the role of internal governance mechanisms in sustainability transitions while recognising the limits of causal inference in observational data.

International Review of Financial Analysis

Chercheurs associésJeanne AmarPublicationsPublicationsSamira DemariaSandra RigotCommentaires fermés sur International Review of Financial Analysis

This study tests if CMP by large firms are linked to higher financial performance.

Most CMP show no impact on Tobin’s Q, suggesting investor indifference to climate action.

EMS certification is linked to lower CFP, possibly due to cost or greenwashing concerns.
GHG targets show a nonlinear link: only very ambitious targets are associated with CFP.
The absence of impact suggests credibility gaps and short-termism hinder market pricing.

Depuis deux décennies, la situation internationale est marquée par une dégradation progressive du droit international. Dans ce contexte, le futur est souvent appréhendé à travers une grille de lecture opposant les États-Unis et la Chine. Cependant, cette représentation bipolaire ne suffit pas, à elle seule, à rendre compte de la complexité des dynamiques globales en cours. Il devient donc nécessaire d’explorer différents scénarios de recomposition de l’ordre international.

Since 2015 the European Union has positioned itself as global leader in the ecological transition, placing the goal of carbon neutrality by 2050 at the heart of its economic and financial agenda. This article examines the role of public banks, particularly the European Investment Bank (EIB), in structuring the financing of the green transition.

Quelle finance pour avancer vers l’autonomie stratégique ?

Industrie, décarbonation, défense… l’Europe multiplie ses objectifs stratégiques et compte sur les marchés financiers pour les financer. Mais la bataille pour l’autonomie stratégique commence peut-être dans le système financier lui-même, par des règles protectrices et des outils innovants de financement public.

Four in five people without access to electricity live in Sub-Saharan Africa, where mini-grids are seen as a key solution. Yet investment remains constrained by low and unpredictable demand, especially in fragile settings. We study electricity demand in North Kivu (Democratic Republic of Congo), using pre-grid census and survey data combined with six years of post-connection consumption records.
