Using alternative methods and robustness checks, we explore that carbon assurance importantly shapes both corporate capital structure and debt maturity. In particular, firms that are involved in independent carbon assurance have significantly higher leverage in their capital structure compared to non-assured firms. Further, assured firms have better access to long-term debt compared to non-assured firms. The outcomes of this study are attributed to the notion that the verification of carbon information increases the creditability of a firm's voluntary reporting and reduces its informational asymmetry between corporations and lenders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11468,"journal":{"name":"Economics Letters","volume":"245 ","pages":"Article 112067"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142661957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
