OverviewAI-generated summary

Paula Castro's research investigates the intersection of corporate environmental performance, financial decision-making, and institutional factors. Her work examines how a firm's transition to a low-carbon economy influences its distance to default and how environmental performance impacts stock prices within green and innovative contexts. Castro also studies the influence of a firm's life cycle and the moderating effects of formal and informal institutions on the relationship between carbon performance and financial debt. Additionally, her research explores how patriarchal attitudes can affect the relationship between women on corporate boards and firm economic performance. Castro has also investigated the impact of financial restrictions on firms' resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly within the European hospitality industry, and the effects of physical climate risks on agricultural firm bankruptcy in several European countries.
