We also find that the spillover of innovation within the CIO network is more pronounced when focal corporations have long-term common institutional investors or leading corporations have a high level of innovation.

In addition, our results reveal time-varying patterns and high sensitivity of these spillover transmissions to the U.S.-China trade war, COVID-19 pandemic, and financial crises.

We introduce a novel videometric measure of executives' emotional stability using a video-based machine learning method. We validate this by providing evidence consistent with the neuroscience literature that older and male executives are more emotionally stable. We find that emotionally stable executives are more receptive to risk-taking. This effect is primarily driven by the emotional regulation towards negative moods. The positive relation between emotional stability and corporate risk-taking is prominent when executives face greater capital market pressure. Firms led by emotionally stable executives have fewer cash holdings, greater leverage, and higher investment expenditure. In addition, we find that executives' emotional stability increases firm financial performance. Overall, this study sheds light on executive personality antecedents of firm-level outcomes, and provides insights into measuring emotional stability in large-scale studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48074,"journal":{"name":"Pacific-Basin Finance Journal","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 102679"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143340373","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 study investigates the impact of a transition finance policy — the China Green Bond Endorsed Project Catalogue — on 1290 Chinese publicly listed firms operating within brown industries. The findings indicate that the transition finance policy increases access to bank credit and fosters R&amp;D investment persistency among brown firms, resulting in enhanced quantity and quality of green innovation. The success of transition finance policy can be attributed to brown firms with higher environmental, social and governance (ESG) ratings as well as those without bank connections. Firms with higher ESG ratings tend to have better access to bank credits, which facilitates more sustained R&amp;D investments. Conversely, despite receiving fewer bank credits, brown firms without bank connections exhibit stronger performance in maintaining persistent R&amp;D investments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48074,"journal":{"name":"Pacific-Basin Finance Journal","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 102674"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143151942","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}

Mechanism regressions show that countries can mitigate the tendency toward low-quality innovation caused by financial risk by introducing FDI, strengthening green innovation cooperation with OECD countries, and improving the quality of their legal systems. Moreover, heterogeneity analysis reveals that the deterioration in green innovation quality due to financial risk is mainly concentrated in non-OECD countries that are economically underdeveloped, have a low innovation base, and suffer from high environmental pollution.

We propose that corporate site visits enhance transparency in company information, thereby mitigating the executive pay gap by making it harder for powerful executives to leverage their authority for pay increases. In addition, we find that institutional investor ownership and corporate site visits serve as substitutes in mitigating the executive pay gap, and a reduced pay gap leads to enhanced future corporate performance.
