Firm-Level Green Investment and Financial Constraints in Vietnam

Firm-level data from the World Bank Enterprise Survey in Vietnam examines the relationship between environmental pressure and green investment. The dataset, 5.5 KB in size and last updated in May 2026, was created by Dinh Duc Truong to analyze how financial constraints moderate firms' environmental investment behavior. It supports nonlinear probability models with interaction terms, controlling for firm characteristics and fixed effects.

Use Cases

• Modeling the probability of green investment based on environmental pressure and firm characteristics.
• Analyzing the moderating effect of financial constraints on regulatory responses.
• Conducting comparative studies on environmental investment in emerging economies.
• Estimating marginal effects of regulatory pressure under varying financial conditions.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the authoritative World Bank Enterprise Survey.
• Focus on an emerging economy (Vietnam) provides a specific geographic context.
• License is CC-BY-4.0, allowing for broad reuse and sharing.

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, limiting suitability assessment.
• The dataset is very small (5.5 KB), indicating a limited scope or aggregated summary data.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data structure and variable semantics require inspection after download.
