Our findings reveal that the stock prices of extraction and refining firms experience significant declines during the periods surrounding these oil spill incidents, and energy pipeline firms exhibit a relatively smaller decrease. These results underscore the risk exposure shared by all energy firms, irrespective of their direct involvement in the oil spill incident. Furthermore, our study uncovers an intriguing dynamic—the influence of political connections established through lobbying activities. We observe that these political ties serve to significantly mitigate the negative market reactions to oil spills. Our results suggest that, from the market's perspective, firms with political connections are less vulnerable to the impending costs associated with oil spills when compared to their non-politically connected counterparts.","PeriodicalId":46664,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Finance","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139945761","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}

Specifically, we construct an <i>ex-ante</i> measure of expected information intensity (EII) and find that in the subsample of high-EII firms, those with high systematic EA risk earn significantly higher future returns. Controlling for known risk factors, stocks with high systematic EA risk outperform those with low systematic EA risk by 0.43% in monthly Fama–French five-factor alpha. We also confirm the well-documented announcement premium, i.e., high-EII firms outperform low-EII firms and show that the EA risk premium is distinct from the announcement premium.

In additional analyses, we show that risk-taking behavior is a channel through which individualism impacts firm default risk. We also find that the effect of individualistic culture on firm default risk is weak in countries with stringent bankruptcy laws.
