Abstract

In recent years, an increasing number of companies have embraced Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles as a driving force for sustainable development. ESG investment concepts, with green finance as a representative, have gained widespread acceptance. This paper utilizes the event study method, using SF Holdings as a case study, to analyze the issuance costs and economic effects of its green bonds. This analysis aims to provide insights for similar enterprises engaging in green finance and further enrich the theoretical research related to green finance.
