Description

ESG Integration: An Asian Perspective

The global movement to fight climate change, and to achieve sustainable development goals, via environmental, social, and governance (ESG) integration continues to generate tremendous research interest. However, as ESG research has recently accelerated, it is time to explore the challenges and performance of ESG integration specifically in the Asian context. This SI welcomes research related to ESG disclosure and information asymmetry (e.g., accounting), ESG integration (e.g., finance), as well as ESG issues in the real-estate sector.
