ABSTRACT In a global business environment where ethical lapses increasingly undermine corporate credibility, can enhanced governance mechanisms and CSR engagement drive behavior? This study explores the intricate relationship between attributes Business Ethical Practices (BEP), examining how moderates this across 386 manufacturing firms in BRICS countries from 2010 to 2022. Grounded Stakeholder Agency Theories, research investigates three core strands: diversity, structural, process attributes. Using Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimator, findings reveal that gender diversity age positively influence BEP, while national has negative association, raising concerns about alignment foreign board members with local standards. Board independence size significantly enhance practices, CEO duality negatively affects emphasizing importance independent oversight. Among attributes, meetings tenure contribute meeting attendance shows suggesting mere presence without meaningful participation may not guarantee outcomes. Notably, amplifies positive effects mitigates influences, reinforcing its critical role as enhancer. Heterogeneity analyses types (Job Shop, Batch, Continuous Process, Mass Production) confirmed consistency these findings. Furthermore, robustness tests, including cluster analysis, sensitivity endogeneity controls, validated reliability results. The provides targeted policy recommendations advocating for stronger mandates, deeper integration, training, practical implications emphasize comprehensive frameworks long‐term sustainability.

ABSTRACT In an era where sustainability has transitioned from being optional to essential, how can firms transform governance and financing strategies lead the transition toward a circular economy (CE)? This study makes vital contribution evolving fields of CE, sustainability, corporate by investigating dynamic interplay between firm structures (FGS), (FS), technological innovation (TI) in enhancing CE performance across US, China, Japan. Grounded Resource‐Based View Agency Theory, examines four critical dimensions: leadership, composition, diversity, structure alongside debt equity strategies. To ensure methodological rigor, panel models Generalized Method Moments (GMM) estimator are employed, complemented instrumental variable approaches. Drawing on comprehensive dataset 461 2000 2022, findings reveal significant regional disparities FGS FS influence performance, with TI emerging as pivotal moderating factor. The further highlights heterogeneous effects ownership types Low‐CE High‐CE performers, emphasizing importance contextual institutional factors adoption. These robust findings, validated through extensive endogeneity sensitivity tests, offer actionable insights for policymakers, leaders, practitioners, stressing need innovative reforms, strategic mechanisms, technology‐driven solutions accelerate global sustainable model.

ABSTRACT As businesses increasingly integrate sustainability into corporate strategy, the role of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) disclosure in driving circular economy ( CE ) adoption has garnered significant attention. However, mechanisms through which ESG facilitates transitions remain underexplored, particularly emerging economies such as sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). This study examines synergistic roles committees mediators eco‐innovation a moderator strengthening ESG– relationship. Using panel dataset 320 manufacturing firms SSA (2010–2022) employing advanced econometric techniques, we address potential endogeneity model biases. The findings reveal that environmental social disclosures positively influence adoption, whereas exerts negative effect due to weak regulatory frameworks compliance inconsistencies. Corporate enhance relationship by ensuring commitments translate strategic actions, while amplifies impact disclosure, accelerating implementation. Notably, observe heterogeneity effects on across regional industrial variations. robust multiple sensitivity tests, confirming their reliability. Our results underscore need for policymakers strengthen mandates enforce reporting accelerate adoption. Furthermore, recommend corporations prioritize investments structures reinforce alignment. These insights offer valuable implications business leaders, policymakers, advocates fostering resilient SSA.

Purpose This study investigates the ecological footprint in MENA region, focusing on roles of renewable energy adoption and environmental regulations promoting sustainability. The research addresses critical need for understanding effectiveness governance mechanisms mitigating degradation a region heavily reliant fossil fuels. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative approach is employed, analyzing panel data from 17 countries spanning 2000–2022. utilizes pooled mean group (PMG) estimator to examine long-run short-run relationships conducts robustness checks Granger causality tests ensure validity reliability findings. Findings results reveal that investment, share installed capacity significantly reduce footprint, highlighting their role degradation. In contrast, domestic manufacturing positively associated with reflecting energy-intensive nature industrial activities. An inverted U-shaped relationship between identified, indicating variations its impact at different levels adoption. Moreover, enhance energy, underscoring importance strong achieving sustainability region. Originality/value extends existing literature by offering comprehensive analysis integrating Kuznets curve technological innovation theories. novel focus moderating provides actionable insights policymakers seeking balance economic growth findings underscore targeted investments robust regulatory frameworks footprints effectively
