This study examines global environmental challenges such as climate change, resource depletion, and ecological degradation, underscoring the critical need to transition to a green economy. It proposes a methodology grounded in social capital theory to facilitate this transition. Green transformation has emerged as a pivotal strategic objective for financial institutions aiming to achieve sustainable development within the global banking industry. As the nexus of capital flows, the banking sector is crucial in advancing the green economy and bolstering financial resilience. The study suggests that banks can support the low-carbon economy by developing green financial products and services, fostering innovation, and applying green technologies through bridging social capital. Additionally, linking social capital emphasizes the interaction and trust between banks and community members, strengthening community support for green policies. Finally, linking social capital connects banks with external markets, resources, and decision-making bodies, facilitating resource integration and synergy. Consequently, this study offers significant theoretical and practical insights for advancing the global transition to a green economy through a social capital lens.
