- The biodiversity moonshot: a spark for a transformative change or a new business-case facade?Publication . Testa, Francesco; Minin, Alberto Di; Tosi, Duccio; Cucino, Valentina; Ontano, Gianmaria; Russo, Michael V.; Dahlmann, Frederik; Banerjee, Subhabrata Bobby; Thorpe, Andrea Stevenson; Figge, Frank; Shapira, Philip; Unter, Kerrigan Marie Machado; Walls, Judith; Darnall, Nicole; McCarthy, Adam; Ferri, Priscila; Holland, Claire; Cricchio, JacopoBiodiversity has recently gained increased attention in sustainability management research. It sustains the ecosystems on which organizations depend, while simultaneously being threatened by organizational activities. By highlighting this dynamic of impact and dependence, the integration of biodiversity into management discourse offers an opportunity to foster a more holistic understanding of the business–nature relationship, grounded in a systems perspective. At the same time, however, there is a risk that biodiversity will be reduced to yet another environmental variable subsumed within the prevailing business-case logic that views nature primarily as a source of economic value. This approach has proven inadequate to drive the transformative change needed to address the environmental crisis. Drawing on a discussion among scholars, this essay outlines six critical challenges—measurement, strategic decision making, innovation, public policy, interdisciplinary approaches, and dominant ontologies—which, depending on how they are addressed, may either catalyze a rethinking of the business–nature relationship or merely perpetuate existing paradigms.
- Green bonds and green banking loans: a systematic literature reviewPublication . Alcarva, Paulo; Pinto, João; Pacheco, Luís; Madaleno, Mara; Barros, TeresaThe main purpose of this research is to examine the significance of green bonds and green banking loans as financing tools for ecologically sustainable projects in the face of increasing worldwide environmental issues. This research seeks to uncover the determinants of both instruments’ issuance and the obstacles to their acceptance. A thorough systematic literature review will be conducted to assess the efficacy of these tools in improving company financial performance and cost of debt, advancing environmental sustainability, and influencing investor behavior. This methodology guarantees a comprehensive and impartial examination of peer-reviewed publications from reputable sources such as Web of Science and Scopus. Although issues such as greenwashing, market liquidity, and regulatory discrepancies still exist, both tools are growing steadily in the sustainable financing spectrum. The results also suggest that both instruments are influenced by several factors, often overlapping due to their common focus on financing sustainable projects. The credit rating, financial health, and overall environmental performance of the issuing entity significantly influence the attractiveness and pricing of green bonds, as do the market conditions, regulatory frameworks, and certification. The environmental profile and creditworthiness of the borrower are key determinants for green banking loans. The review enhances the current body of knowledge by presenting a theoretical structure for comprehending the dynamics of green debt markets and proposing practical recommendations for policymakers and financial institutions. Furthermore, it emphasizes the deficiencies in existing research, including the need for further longitudinal investigations into green bank loans and a more thorough examination of the notion of ‘greenium’. We searched Web of Science and Scopus up to 26 April 2024. Eligibility criteria included peer-reviewed English-language studies on green bonds or green banking loans. After screening, 128 studies were found to have met the inclusion criteria.
