Abstract

This study explores the relationship between financial firms' environmental, social, and governance (ESG) activities and their financial stability measured by Altman's Z-score. Based on a dataset of listed financial institutions in Korea, our results indicate a positive association between stability and ESG activities. Overall ESG scores and those for the individual environmental, social, and governance pillars potentially enhance financial stability. The environmental pillar plays the most significant role in improving the stability of financial firms. The positive association between ESG activities and financial firms' stability is also seen in nonbanking sectors.

环境、社会和公司治理活动与金融稳定性:韩国金融公司的案例
本研究探讨了金融公司的环境、社会和治理(ESG)活动与其以 Altman Z 分数衡量的财务稳定性之间的关系。基于韩国上市金融机构的数据集,我们的研究结果表明稳定性与 ESG 活动之间存在正相关。总体 ESG 分数以及环境、社会和治理支柱的单项分数都有可能提高金融稳定性。环境支柱在提高金融公司稳定性方面发挥着最重要的作用。环境、社会和治理活动与金融公司稳定性之间的正相关关系在非银行业也同样存在。
