Drawing on a study of 131 agrifood VSSOs across 152 countries, the paper shows that these standards are more most commonly found not in institutional \u201cvoids\u201d but in countries with stronger local trade, financial, and social protection institutions. The findings suggest that VSSOs are most active where domestic institutions help firms access export facilitation, technical support, and credit for standards adoption and upgrading within global value chains. Surprisingly the strength of environmental stewardship institutions is not significantly associated with VSSO diffusion. For policymakers, the implication is clear: attracting VSSOs and supporting sustainable upgrading may depend less on filling institutional voids alone and more on strengthening the local support system that enable companies to comply with and benefit from sustainability standards. <\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-dmsb-content-card-single\">\n\t\n<article class=\"content-card\">\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content-card__media-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content-card__media\">\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1314\" height=\"767\" src=\"https:\/\/damore-mckim.northeastern.edu\/cem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/04\/Gemini_Generated_Image_c0b21ic0b21ic0b2-e1776355333692.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/damore-mckim.northeastern.edu\/cem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/04\/Gemini_Generated_Image_c0b21ic0b21ic0b2-e1776355333692.png 1314w, https:\/\/damore-mckim.northeastern.edu\/cem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/04\/Gemini_Generated_Image_c0b21ic0b21ic0b2-e1776355333692-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/damore-mckim.northeastern.edu\/cem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/04\/Gemini_Generated_Image_c0b21ic0b21ic0b2-e1776355333692-1024x598.png 1024w, https:\/\/damore-mckim.northeastern.edu\/cem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/04\/Gemini_Generated_Image_c0b21ic0b21ic0b2-e1776355333692-768x448.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1314px) 100vw, 1314px\" \/>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"content-card__content-wrapper\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"content-card__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/damore-mckim.northeastern.edu\/cem\/resources\/leveraging-the-capabilities-of-multinational-firms-to-address-climate-change-a-finance-perspective\/\">Leveraging the Capabilities of Multinational Firms to Address Climate Change: A Finance Perspective<\/a><\/h3>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content-card__description\">This brief examines how multinational companies (MNCs) can play an important role in climate action in emerging markets, overcoming the political roadblocks and country-specific barriers \u2013 such as inconsistent regulations or lack of technology \u2013 that have stalled global coordination. Drawing on recent research by Allen, Barbalau, Chavez and Zeni, it identifies four key features that position MNCs uniquely to address the climate challenge: their size and reach, resources and technology, collaborative networks, and superior access to capital. Together, these features enable MNCs to act as conduits for transferring the resources necessary to finance the climate transition. Although MNCs have been major contributors of global emissions, their extensive and efficient internal markets for governance, financing, and technology allow them to diffuse best practices and clean technologies more efficiently than piecemeal government regulation. By designing the right public and private incentive mechanisms, decision-makers can realign MNC objectives and harness their potential to decarbonize the economy.<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-cta\">\n<li><a
