Green financing, one of innovative financial instruments, covers a variety of banking industry topics. Asmonetary and financial institutions, banks are in charge of financing enterprises, and they are alsoconsidered to be an integral part of economic and commercial activities. Therefore, it is necessary tostudy the factors which affect green financing of enterprises through the banking industry. The present study applies a mixed methods approach, and in the first step, the green financing model of enterprises through Iran's banking industry is presented based on grounded qualitative research approach. In the second step, structural equation modeling technique is applied to test quantitatively the relationships between elements of the resulting model. In the qualitative part, the statistical population included environment and banking experts who were selected using targeted samplingviasnowball method. Among the selected population, 16 experts were interviewed, and after coding the interviews and achieving theoretical saturation, the components of the model were determined in form of 77 subcomponents and 21 principal components. Consequently, the final model was developed. In the quantitative part, the statistical population included the experts and managers of 8 banks with green financing and banking experience in order to examine the validation and fitting of the developed model. After collecting a sample of 500 items out of the handed-out questionnaires and analyzing the results using structural equation modeling, the results indicated that the obtained components have a direct and meaningful impact on the green financing process of enterprises, and the main aspects ingreen financing of enterprises through Iran's banking industry have low levels of readiness.

After completing three steps and collecting the checklists, a 34- item questionnaire was prepared in the first step. The questionnaire was then distributed among the university professors. In the second stage, after the experts answered the questionnaire, the most important factors were identified through exploratory factor analysis and the less important factors were removed from the questionnaire list. Then, the second questionnaire, which contained 10 main components, was distributed among the experts. After answering the questionnaire in the last stage, the final questionnaire was prepared and distributed among the studied sample. Structural equation model, heuristic and confirmatory factor analysis with Amos software were used to analyze the data. The results show that the challenges of Green ebanking include intraorganizational challenges, respectively, including financial structure, lack of knowledge of managers, bureaucratic structure and.

Many green supply chain management techniques have been used in recent years. But there are still obstacles to their widespread use. In the healthcare industry, the supply chain associated with pharmaceutical products is critical, Because it must create the highest standards of patient care and provide adequate storage for pharmacies. Therefore, it is necessary to manage this case carefully in order to achieve the service goals. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between barriers and identify the most effective barriers to green supply chain management of hospital services using interpretive structural modeling approach. The research method is of a mixed nature, Our statistical population is the experts of the members of the Green Hospital Planning Committee and the General Department of Environment of Golestan Province who have been selected by purposive sampling method. Barriers have been completed by the statistical community using interpretive-structural modeling questionnaire, And the relationships between obstacles have been identified And components were classified into four levels. The results show that barriers to lack of support from senior managers and lack of awareness of environmental effects have a greater impact on other components. And the obstacles to not creating a tangible competitive advantage due to the implementation of the green supply chain and the integration of IT systems are at the elementary level Also, dependent, independent and linked variables were identified.
