First, using simulations, I compare traditional and machine learning (ML) imputation methods and show that ML methods consistently outperform traditional imputation approaches. Applying these methods to real-world missing ESG data, I recalculate emissions scores and uncover notable discrepancies from LSEG-reported values, suggesting that LSEG’s methodology may unintentionally favor firms with more complete disclosures. Moreover, I identify a pattern that companies with larger market capitalization tend to have lower rates of missing data and receive higher emissions scores. These results show a potential missing data bias in ESG data that favors larger firms and the importance of imputing missing data with ML techniques to reach category scores that more closely capture actual sustainability performance.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144337544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings indicate that the development of the digital economy significantly enhances the performance of digital creative enterprises. Further analysis reveals that higher levels of marketization substantially amplify this positive effect. Additionally, the digital economy exerts a more pronounced value-enhancing effect on digital creative enterprises participating in public–private partnership (PPP) projects, private enterprises, and small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
