How do the carbon emission trading prices affect the financing decision of the supply chain considering carbon neutrality?

This paper considers a supply chain formed by a manufacturer with constrained capital and a retailer with sufficient capital. By using the Stackelberg game theory, we discuss the manufacturer's and retailer's optimization decisions for bank financing, zero-interest early payment financing, and in-house factoring financing under both normal and carbon neutrality scenarios. In the carbon neutrality scenario, numerical analysis shows that improving the efficiency of emission reduction drives manufacturers to switch from external to internal financing methods.

The impact of blockchain on optimal incentive contracts for online supply chain finance.

In China, supply chain finance is still in infancy. However, it is the problems of information sharing, trust transfer, and risk management that have been making it difficult to meet the financing needs of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in supply chain. The emerging blockchain technology, with its unique decentralization, traceability, and other characteristics, has found a digital solution for traditional supply chain finance.

Research on services decision-making in closed-loop supply chain dominated by a logistics provider.

Remanufacturing is an advanced form of recycling in circular economy. In order to promote the development of remanufacturing, the government gradually uses subsidy policies to regulate and intervene related enterprises. In this paper, we assume that a closed-loop supply chain consists of an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) producing new products from raw materials, a remanufacturer producing re-manufactured products from used items directly collected from customers, and a logistics provider which sells and distributes two products as a monopolist in the given market.
