Additional robustness is provided cross-sectional, time-series FGLS regression. Results show sustainability consistently boosts directly. However, examining individual metrics reveals negatively correlates innovation, excluding scores. Most interaction terms mirror sustainability's influence, though returns concentrations diverge. Introducing also inverts prior at times. Analyzing direct, interactive, net impacts offers different views than indexing alone. positively links analyses versus other specifications. Overall, findings provide empirically grounded insights into these dynamics within influential nations. Non-linearities are observed aggregate disaggregate indicators. Considering diverse analytical angles through multidimensional lens informs optimized policy balances.
