The impact of fossil fuel divestments and energy transitions on mutual funds performance

Xiaozhu Guo et al.

Summary: This paper assesses the performance of 4712 fossil and non-fossil fuel investment funds in the Eurozone over eleven years. The findings show that there is no difference in risk-adjusted performance between the two categories. When funds rebalance their portfolios to invest in cleaner firms, performance tends to improve. This suggests that investors can choose low-carbon firms without compromising their investment targets and bottom lines.

Carbon emission reduction characteristics for China's manufacturing firms: Implications for formulating carbon policies

Yunfei An et al.

Summary: This study used DEA-GS model to analyze the carbon reduction characteristics of China's manufacturing industry, finding that as the marginal abatement costs of firms increase, the growth rates of emission reduction activities and emission reduction slow down. The impact of marginal abatement costs on reduction activities and firms in each sub-sector is heterogeneous. The emission reduction behaviors of manufacturing firms are mostly concentrated in developed areas or around large cities.
