By analyzing cross-sectional ESG data from various sources related to 56 countries, we find that ESG information plays a crucial role in shaping analyst forecasts. More importantly, we examine the interaction between internally and externally sourced information on affecting analysts. Our results suggest that while ESG information from the media attenuates the impact of firms' ESG disclosures on reducing analysts' forecast errors and dispersion, information from ESG rating agencies increases this impact. We also find that globally implemented mandatory ESG disclosure regulations significantly increase the effect of ESG information from all three sources on analysts. In countries with a stronger stakeholder orientation, financial analysts tend to derive greater relative benefits from ESG information obtained from various sources. Overall, the findings of this study support the conclusion that both externally and internally sourced ESG information is of significant value for financial analysts, and the implementation of mandatory ESG disclosure requirements in a country increases this significance.</p>","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"25 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143857122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A detection-controlled estimation (DCE) model reveals that while 17.79% of M&amp;A announcements likely involve insider trading, regulators detect only 29.59%.

Chinese corporations that offer broad-based incentives for employees and managers demonstrate greater R&amp;D investment efficiency, as evidenced by a higher ratio of innovation outputs to cost allocation. Conversely, firms receiving government R&amp;D subsidies demonstrate lower efficiency. Accounting for endogenous treatments in a multi-treatment framework, we suggest an information-sharing environment is critical for efficient capital allocation. Government agencies will likely provide subsidies based on information different from what firm headquarters might have, while broad-based incentive programs encourage employee coordination, enhancing efficiency and project quality. To signal project quality, firms with broad-based incentives capitalize a higher proportion of R&amp;D costs than subsidized firms.

In our validation tests, we show a significantly positive correlation between investor sentiment and three stock market parameters that is, stock return, price volatility, and information efficiency.
