Abstract: Abstract The association among state/institutional/foreign ownership, environmental, social, governance (ESG), and corporate social responsibility (CSR) is ambiguous in Chinese corporate finance. The state ownership is the most unique part of Chinese market; therefore, the developed economies originated empirical and theoretical findings may deviate the native flavor in emerging countries. Although the relevant studies focused on Chinese market are limited, we hold the interest to sort out the existent researches on the relation between ownership structure and green economy. The impressive China’s economic development significantly attributes to the policy of Economic Reform and Open Up. At China’s current development stage, the speedy and irregular economic development must be replaced by the sustainable and green economic development. By focusing on China’s issue, we document the existence literatures about the impact of various ownership structure on the performance of ESG and CSR. Further, we briefly summarize the relation between fossil energy and environment protection.
