Under the concept of sustainable development, the impact of air pollution on financial performance has attracted much attention. Taking the impact of air pollution on corporate financial performance as the research subject, on the basis of sorting out the current research status of air pollution and financial performance, a literature review and research prospect are conducted on the path and economic consequences of air pollution affecting corporate financial performance. First, the current research status of air pollution and financial performance at home and abroad is reviewed; secondly, the impact of air pollution on the individual financial performance of micro-enterprises is sorted out from the three aspects of corporate innovation, human resources and environmental regulation; finally, the existing research on the impact of air pollution on financial performance is summarized, and on this basis, research prospects are proposed in terms of research indicators, research object selection and the impact path between the two, so as to provide a reference for promoting corporate economic development and further conducting research on the impact of air pollution on micro-enterprises.
