This paper investigates the impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance on litigation risk, using non-financial and non-insurance companies listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share markets as the research sample. The study's findings indicate that higher CSR performance effectively reduces litigation risk. Further analysis suggests that the reduction in litigation risk is achieved through the enhancement of corporate reputation. Group tests reveal that this mitigating effect of CSR performance on litigation risk is more significant in companies with low levels of internal control.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142805324","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}

We provide a new perspective on the role of cultural governance in corporate financial management and offers practical guidance for both corporate management and policy-making.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142841963","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}

This growth in supply and demand could be described as spectacular despite several crises in the financial markets during the last two decades. In this study, we examine and compare a sample of mutual funds across 35 countries for the 1990–2023 time period. The application of the efficiency ratios shows significant differences in efficiency among the evidence offered by the best-performing countries compared to those countries with the worst results. The fact that mutual funds obtain lower yield premiums compared to free-risk assets has originated a common situation of loss of performance efficiency at a global level. This phenomenon is shown by the three proposed indicators.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142841964","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}

Specifically, we conduct a series of stochastic dominance tests to determine whether high-ESG portfolios outperform low-ESG and market portfolios. The results reveal that, in the short term, no significant dominance relationships exist between high- and low-ESG portfolios. However, in the long term, high-ESG portfolios significantly dominate both low-ESG and market portfolios in terms of second- and third-degree stochastic dominance. Our findings offer valuable insights into integrating ESG considerations into investment decisions.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"228 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142805336","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}

Findings reveal that ESG disclosures constraints accrual earnings management; however, high ESG scores lead to higher real earnings management, indicating possible greenwashing behavior. For three pillars of ESG, we find that firms with environmental disclosures constrain EM, while social disclosures tend to enhance EM practices. Study reveals that ESG and its sub-pillars have a curvilinear relationship with EM. CEO duality moderates ESG-EM to provide a cushion for potential greenwashing. ESG impact is not limited to EM; consequently, it affects the firms’ market performance by mediating real earnings management.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142841973","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}

Using high-frequency data from the Binance Exchange, we implement a triangular arbitrage strategy, considering Bitcoin, Litecoin, and the U.S. Dollar. We find 4,879 possible arbitrage opportunities. Although these findings suggest potential inefficiencies, transaction costs and limited trading volumes in the order book eliminate their profitability. Consequently, centralized cryptocurrency markets exhibit a high degree of efficiency. Moreover, our results suggest that the mere number of triangular arbitrage opportunities is not a reliable indicator of market inefficiency.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"257 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142841969","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}

Our findings reveal that high disagreement in ESG rating is associated with high return volatility risk, which potentially leads to increased stock returns.

The mechanism tests suggest that ESG disagreement enhances stock returns by amplifying idiosyncratic return volatility. Overall, our research sheds light on how ESG disagreement affects stock returns through market microstructure, and offers valuable insights into the role that ESG disagreement plays in ESG investing.","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142805325","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}
