business sustainability research (or studies)


Explanation:
Business sustainability refers to all the elements of the phrase you are translating. If you feel the need to more literally translate it, you could build in 'research about economic-financial business sustainability'.

Example sentence(s):
  • A more robust definition is that business sustainability represents resiliency over time – businesses that can survive shocks because they are intimately connected to healthy economic, social and environmental systems.

agree  Andy Watkinson: Yes. It could and should be interpreted as referring to the sustainability of the profits.
6 hrs
disagree  nweatherdon: The parsing (of the answer) suggests that they will only study organizations which are already known to have sustainable profitability. For this option, "sustainable profit feasibility studies" is possibly more accurate

financial sustainability studies


Explanation:
Implicit in this is that margins or profits have to be high enough for the activities to stay open, or expand on some path that is quite likely to survive most types of economic issues which may arise. So you don't need to include "economic".

Also, "financial sustainability" would tend to also imply sustainability of profits (or whatever equivalent stream of operating funds and/or whatever else sustains the organization's activities).
