The aim and novelty of this study consist estimating the nexus between CO2 (carbon dioxide) emissions, energy use, economic growth, financial development for ten Central Eastern European countries (CEEC) over 2000–2017 period, starting from Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) theory. Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) method was used testing cointegration relationship. Granger causality estimation based on Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) Pairwise test were applied to identify...
The COVID-19 pandemic deeply impacted not only human wealth but also all segments of the economy as well field technology. Thus, purpose this paper was to analyze effects that crisis and digitization have had on financial performance banks in Central Eastern European Union countries (CEEC) during 2010–2021 period. In order capture an overview banking systems 10 CEECs, we used three variables—ROA, ROE NPL—as reference indicators. highlight impact systems, number reported cases a variable,...
Blue Economy represents a new and interesting concept on global level, both from the economic potential but also by fact that it can be used to reduce environmental degradation. The main goal of this research is identify causality relations between greenhouse gas emissions, growth based panel annual data 28 countries are members European Union (EU) over 2009–2018 period. After applying stationarity cointegration tests, long term coefficients shall determined with help fully modified ordinary...
In the context of current global challenges, integration digitalization, financial performance, and renewable energy is pivotal in fostering sustainable resilient economic development.

The aim and novelty of this study lie in analyzing the role European Social Fund (ESF) supporting implementation Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within Union (EU) countries over 2015–2023 period. EU Member States were grouped into two clusters: Cluster A (15 lower-income states) B (12 higher-income states). used ESF payments as explanatory variable 17 SDG indicators dependent variables. methodology combined exploratory factor analysis (EFA) robust regression to analyze relationship...
This study aims at shedding light on how e-commerce contributes to climate change in European Union countries. To explore this relationship, we introduced a novel index designed measure the evolution of as dependent variable, while considering activities independent variable within 2011 2022 period. Our investigation correlation between these variables employed panel quantile regression model. The outcomes revealed statistically significant increasing trend for higher quantiles. finding...
The objective of this study was to characterize the development regions in Romania and measure spatial imbalances, starting from national European Union aspiration promote more economic social policies adapted different regional particularities. For purpose, we conducted a multifactorial analysis sustainability at NUTS II level by constructing synthetic index socio-economic for that appreciate have accepted structural cohesion funds. multi-criteria obtained aggregating several sub-indices...
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the nexus between financial (banking) accessibility and economic growth in context digitization process. Thus, we built a panel model evaluate correlations banking during 2010–2021 period for Central Eastern European Countries (CEEC). Furthermore, applied Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) method with eight independent variables measuring degree dependent variable growth. results show that improving positively influences greater access...
This study examines the impact of European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) funds, specifically Fund for Rural Development (FEADR) and Guarantee (FEGA), on a range economic, social, environmental outcomes across regions. Utilizing Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) estimators, this research analyses 13 equations corresponding to various dependent variables, including employment rates, poverty levels, agricultural productivity, indicators such as greenhouse gas emissions...
