We propose a novel dynamic panel estimator. Different from the commonly used difference and system GMM, our proposed estimator requires only one of the crosssectional dimension (N) or the time dimension (T) to grow large to be asymptotically unbiased. This improves reliability in panels with...

We investigated the relationship between Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance and corporate financial performance (CFP) among publicly listed firms in the Philippines from 2015 to 2024. Utilizing Bloomberg's ESG scores, we employed a triangulated econometric framework that...
