ABSTRACT This study examined how Bitcoin, energy prices, and geopolitical risk interact by examining the first four moments (mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis) of their return distributions by using wavelet analysis. The findings reveal that the co‐movement patterns of energy index, geopolitical risk index, and Bitcoin prices are time and ...

Biodiversity Credits: An Overview of the Current State, Future Opportunities, and Potential Pitfalls
ABSTRACT Biodiversity credits are an emerging vehicle for pro‐environmental financing, yet much uncertainty remains around how and when they could boost biodiversity conservation. Here we define what biodiversity credits are and explore impact pathways through a proposed theory of change. Based on evidence from 34 pilot projects and a review of lessons
