Environmental Sustainability and Business Profitability: Profiling Winners and Losers With Machine Learning

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We utilize a rich dataset of manufacturing firms to investigate the heterogeneous effects of ISO 14001 on the financial performance of certified firms. We employ machine learning techniques, specifically causal tree and causal forest, to uncover these effects. Our findings reveal consistently positive average effects of ISO 14001 certification
