Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study analyzes the incidence of environmental reporting on the financial performance (FP) of top banks in Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (“BRICS”) countries using data from 50 leading banks from 2018 to 2023. Using panel regression analysis, the findings indicate that environmental reporting significantly impacts accounting‐

Extending Social Resource Exchange to Events of Abundance and Sufficiency [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This article identifies how scarcity, abundance, and sufficiency influence exchange behavior. Analyzing the mechanisms governing exchange of resources constitutes the foundation of several social-science perspectives. Neoclassical economics provides one of the most well-known perspectives of how rational individuals allocate and exchange resources ...

Impurity temperature screening in stellarators close to quasisymmetry [PDF]
, 2020 Impurity temperature screening is a favorable neoclassical phenomenon involving an outward radial flux of impurity ions from the core of fusion devices. Quasisymmetric magnetic fields are intrinsically ambipolar and give rise to temperature screening for low enough $\eta^{-1}\equiv d\ln n/d\ln T$.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ongoing debate in corporate sustainability (CS) about the moral case versus the business case has recently made its way into the circular economy (CE) discourse, bringing with it new tradeoffs. Although the business case perspective emphasizes profitability, critics argue that the moral case must go beyond profit motives and include ...

Electrostatic potential variations on stellarator magnetic surfaces in low collisionality regimes [PDF]
J. Plasma Phys. 84, 905840407 (2018), 2018 The component of the neoclassical electrostatic potential that is non-constant on the magnetic surface, that we denote by $\tilde\varphi$, can affect radial transport of highly charged impurities, and this has motivated its inclusion in some modern neoclassical codes.

Manager Sentiment and Merger Activities
Journal of Corporate Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates the ability of manager sentiment to predict corporate merger activity. Prior research suggests that during periods of high sentiment, managers tend to overestimate the future prospects of their firms. We thus hypothesize that, during such periods, managers may also overestimate the future cash flows from the mergers ...

Nonparametric Counterfactual Predictions in Neoclassical Models of International Trade
, 2017 We develop a methodology to construct nonparametric counterfactual predictions, free of functional-form restrictions on preferences and technology, in neoclassical models of international trade. First, we establish the equivalence between such models and

Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, EarlyView.Abstract In this study we describe the potential of human‐centered design principles to identify burdens, reducing the effects of administrative checkpoints. Administrative checkpoints—mandatory requirements that must be satisfied in order to progress in an administrative process—have disproportionate negative effects in excluding the public from ...

The importance of the classical channel in the impurity transport of optimized stellarators [PDF]
, 2019 In toroidal magnetic confinement devices, such as tokamaks and stellarators, neoclassical transport is usually an order of magnitude larger than its classical counterpart. However, when a high-collisionality species is present in a stellarator optimized for low Pfirsch-Schl\"uter current, its classical transport can be comparable to the neoclassical ...

Study of the neoclassical radial electric field of the TJ-II flexible heliac [PDF]
Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 54, 015005 (2012), 2011 Calculations of the monoenergetic radial diffusion coefficients are presented for several configurations of the TJ-II stellarator usually explored in operation. The neoclassical radial fluxes and the ambipolar electric field for the standard configuration are then studied for three different collisionality regimes, obtaining precise results in all ...
