It centers on the influence of green marketing on the performance of corporations, as well as the moderating influence of board characteristics. The findings reveal the following: first, green marketing serves to enhance corporate performance; second, the independent composition of the board of directors exerts a positive moderating influence; third, the combination of the roles of chairman and general manager exerts a negative moderating influence, impeding the positive effects of green marketing on corporate performance; and finally, the gender diversity of the board of directors plays a beneficial moderating role.
