Abstract: The publisher of Management Decision is issuing an Expression of Concern for the following article: Gu, Y., Wu, P. and Du, R. (2023), “Corporate strategic positioning and environmental information disclosure under circular economy: evidence from China”, Management Decision, Vol. 62 No. 9 pp. 2791-2813, doi: https://doi.org/10.1108/MD-02-2023-0301, which was submitted to the guest-edited special issue “Navigating the role of circular economy in entrepreneurship: Opportunities and challenges”. An investigation by the publisher found a number of articles with multiple concerns, including but not limited to compromised editorial handling and reviewing, undisclosed conflicts of interest, and lack of suitability for the scope of the journal.

The journal has not been able to confirm whether the authors were aware of these concerns. The authors of this article would like to note that they do not agree with the content of this notice. An investigation is ongoing and is currently unresolved. Further information will be provided by Management Decision as it becomes available. The publisher of the journal sincerely apologizes to the readers and authors of this article, who were not found to be involved in any malpractice.
