Sustainability risk management (SRM) is an approach that manages the broad spectrum of risks arising from sustainability issues such as climate change, resource depletion and natural catastrophes. SRM is an extension to Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) that aims to maximize environmental, social and economic performances for a company’s survival. In an SRM practice, knowledge management is a strategic resource for companies to sustain in the rapidly-evolved business environment. It provides a solution to address the unknown risks associated with environmental complexity. Thus, the aim of this study is to examine the moderating effect of knowledge management on the relationship between SRM critical factors (ERM bases and organizational resil-ience) and company survival among public listed companies (PLCs) in Malaysia. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) technique is used to analyze the hypothetical model which is developed in this study. The result shows that knowledge management moderates the relationship between organizational resilience and company survival. This finding signifies that knowledge management is an important strategic resource to assist companies to develop effective risk management strategy. This will lead to better decision-making and risk controls which influence stakeholder value and company reputation. The study also finds that ERM bases and organiza-tional resilience were significant towards company survival. Companies with strong ERM bases such as procedures, infrastructure and methods have higher chances of successful SRM implemen-tation. Organizational resilience refers to the ability of a company to manage crises and disaster risks, which is crucial for a company’s survival. This study has both theoretical and practical implications. The result of this study provides relevant insights on the value of knowledge management to meet stakeholder expectations. It also provides a better understanding of the relationship between SRM implementation, its critical factors and company survival.

Social media technology as borderless media has made it easier for small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) to interact with their customers. The application of social media has impacted the operation and information sharing of SMEs, allowing them to develop innovation opportunities, to meet customer needs, and to improve firm performance. This study examined the influence of social media use on business networking quality and product innovativeness of SMEs. The data for this cross-sectional study were gathered from jewelry crafting SMEs in Bali, Indonesia using the survey method. The data were analyzed using the covariance-based statistical analysis technique with SPSS via AMOS 23. The results indicate that, while the direct link between social media adoption and firm performance is not significant, this path is fully mediated through business networking quality and product innovativeness. Hence, these SMEs should leverage their social media adoption due to strong business networking quality and product innovativeness enabling competitive advantage that heightens firm performance. Firm-level product innovation can harness the economic performance of the SMEs. The study limitations and future research endeavors are presented at the end of this paper.
