Abstract

The study aims to explore the mediating role of green finance in the relationship between its key predictors—regulatory environment, financial institutions, investor demand, technological innovation, public awareness, and education—and the implementation of green finance management practices and their impact on environmental sustainability. By examining these relationships, the research seeks to highlight the significant influence of green finance on promoting sustainable environmental practices. The findings of this investigation are expected to contribute to the advancement of green projects, thereby enhancing environmental sustainability in the long run.
