Brief Statement of research work

My research focuses on corporate finance, sustainable finance, and ESG performance, with particular emphasis on green finance, ownership structure, and governance mechanisms. I examine how financial decisions, capital structure, cash holdings, and board characteristics influence firm risk, performance, and sustainability outcomes. Methodologically, I specialize in panel data econometrics, bibliometric analysis, and systematic literature reviews to advance evidence-based insights in finance and management research.
