Abstract
Studies on trade and environmental pollution have explored the issue of pollution haven in goods and aggregate trade, but not in services. This study is therefore imperative, as it aims to examine the phenomenon of pollution haven in goods and services trade within the ECOWAS trading bloc from 2000 to 2023. The study examined whether developed countries have gained an advantage from open trade and transferred their polluting activities to ECOWAS member states. The study utilised panel data that comprised 15 member countries. Static and dynamic techniques of analysis were applied. Based on the theories underlying the analytical model, the results indicate that a rise in goods trade increases emissions. At the same time, services trade reduces emissions. The premise that trade shifts industry composition toward dirtier production is also supported. However, ECOWAS countries are exploring comparative advantages in labour-intensive industries that reduce pollution. Energy consumption exacerbates emissions, and trade in goods and services may bring energy-efficient technologies that lower pollution. ECOWAS countries are pollution haven in goods trade but not in services; that is, advanced economies use goods trade openness and transfer their pollution to the sub-region. These findings are further validated using other measures of pollution (GHG and PM2.5), enhancing the credibility and reliability of the research. Based on the study results, we provided policy implications to guide policymakers.

Abstract
The development of literature reviews on Supply Chain Performance Measurement Systems (SCPMS) has been extensive. However, studies focusing on the roles of various actors within the supply chain, as well as research covering the period beyond 2020, remain limited. Therefore, we conducted a study to explore the evolution of SCPMS using the Scopus and Web of Science databases, covering the years 2004 to 2024. We began by identifying the limitations of previous literature reviews. Subsequently, we performed a systematic literature review of academic articles published in internationally accredited journals, primarily within the domains of supply chain management and performance measurement. The final sample consisted of 78 articles. The findings reveal publication trends over time and provide insights into the evolution and research opportunities of SCPMS. The evolution of SCPMS over the past two decades reflects a significant transformation driven by shifts in the global business environment, advancements in technology, and the growing emphasis on sustainability and resilience. The research opportunities are categorized into nine key areas. These include the comprehensive SCPMS framework, dynamic evaluation, generalization of SCPMS models, the integration of green, sustainability, and circular economy principles into SCPMS, the analytical methods, and the development of specialized metrics.
