Digital Transformation, Carbon Accounting Quality, and Greenwashing in Global Capital Markets

Supervisor:

Dr Soheil Kazemian

Abstract

This project investigates whether corporate digital transformation improves the quality and credibility of carbon accounting disclosures or facilitates greenwashing in global capital markets. As sustainability reporting expands under frameworks such as IFRS S1 and S2, firms increasingly rely on digital technologies to support environmental reporting. Using large-scale text analysis and panel data methods, the study examines how digitalisation affects the quality of emissions disclosure and environmental credibility. The project evaluates whether digital technologies enhance transparency and accountability or intensify symbolic sustainability communication without substantive improvement.
