Based on a comprehensive sample of 2344 firms from 2011 to 2022, our findings reveal a positive correlation between ESG performance and dividend payout. Notably, this positive impact is significantly pronounced in common‐law countries, where investor protection is robust. Moreover, companies with high ESG performance are more adept at increasing dividends despite ESG controversies. These results remain robust even when considering endogeneity concerns, reduced sample size, or the use of alternative proxies for dividends and ESG. Our study's findings have practical implications, as they suggest that companies can enhance their dividend payout by improving their ESG performance, even in the face of controversies. This contributes to the existing literature by shedding light on the relationship between non‐financial performance and a key corporate financial decision (dividends) in a cross‐country context.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144066782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, an increasing number of startups operating on circular principles are emerging in the agriculture sector to create value from the agri‐waste. In this research, we aim to investigate the challenges faced by these agri waste‐to‐value (WTV) startups, which is currently missing in the extant literature. In the process, we have used the lens of extended institutional theory (EIT) to identify and understand the challenges faced by WTV startups and stakeholder theory (ST) is used to propose strategies for overcoming these obstacles. An innovative integrated model based on probabilistic linguistic term sets (PLTS), evidential reasoning algorithm (ERA), and aggregated‐ranking model considering psychological preferences of decision makers is developed to examine the challenges. This is one of the initial studies to comprehensively explore the challenges faced by WTV startups in the agriculture sector and propose a framework to overcome these challenges based on EIT and ST. A multidimensional analysis is performed to consider the economic, operational, and socio‐environmental implications of the challenges. Different analyses are conducted for better understanding about the sector and maturity stage specific challenges faced by startups. The findings reveal that coercive challenges pose the most critical threat and a policy restructuring is urgently required to support the WTV startups in the agriculture sector. Further, operational challenges related to raw materials and infrastructure appear to be more critical in the waste‐to‐material sector whereas waste‐to‐energy sector is struggling due to technological issues.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"132 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144066884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines whether and under what circumstances institutional ownership contributes to aligning ESG disclosure with actual sustainability performance. Analysing an international sample of 3465 listed companies (13,488 firm‐year observations) from 2009 to 2023, we find that institutional investors play a crucial role in reducing ESG decoupling. However, this effect depends on their investment horizon: long‐term institutional investors mitigate ESG decoupling, whereas short‐term institutional investors exacerbate it. These findings contribute to the corporate governance and sustainability literature by showing that institutional investors are not a homogeneous group and that their monitoring effectiveness varies depending on their investment horizon. From a practical perspective, our results highlight the need for regulatory initiatives that incentivise long‐term institutional engagement and more stringent ESG reporting requirements to curb opportunistic disclosure practices.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143979596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the relationship between carbon reduction and legitimacy has received significant attention, with academics noting both the positive relationship between the two and the risk of ‘greenwashing’. Here, we review the extant literature on carbon reduction and legitimacy, presenting insights into the current academic discourse and highlighting an important distinction between ‘legitimacy’ as it relates to perception and ‘legitimacy’ as it relates to actual congruence between the actions of the company and social expectations. Our review demonstrates that legitimacy as perception is the dominant application of the concept in the literature, and we highlight the importance of more academic consideration of the way in which companies' carbon reduction efforts actually cohere with relevant norms and values.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"56 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143945667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we examine the effect of climate risk governance on firm‐level environmental innovation. Based on a panel of 4378 firm‐year observations from the nonfinancial S&amp;P 500 components over the period of 2011–2021, we provide novel empirical evidence that corporate climate risk governance is positively associated with environmental innovation. Firms with strong climate risk governance appear to engage more in environment‐friendly innovation to reduce environmental costs and the burden on customers. Further analysis identifies a channel, namely, environmental investment, through which climate risk governance facilitates environmental innovation. Our results remain consistent after we employ an instrumental variable approach and propensity score matching estimates to address potential endogeneity bias. The empirical results also pass a battery of robustness tests with alternative variables and different estimation techniques. This study carries important implications for executive management, regulators, and other stakeholders in relation to reforms in governance structures and the advancement of environmentally sustainable innovation.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"231 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143945666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a sample of 339 companies from the 2021 Fortune Global 500 list, our findings indicate that corporate virtues significantly drive sustainability performance. Furthermore, companies with higher sustainability performance are more likely to include tax disclosures in their sustainability reports. The findings suggest that tax transparency is not merely a compliance‐driven practice but a reflection of a company's commitment to the common good. By positioning tax disclosure as an extension of corporate virtues, this research enriches the discourse on sustainability reporting, offering valuable insights for policymakers, investors, and corporate leaders striving to align business success with societal impact.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143930581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We take advantage of new data on the adoption of different green technologies (circular economy, technical advancements, energy savings, and efficiency gains) from a large representative sample of Italian firms. We find the following results. First, overall green investment increases the sales per employee and average wages. Second, we show a significant heterogeneity in the estimated effect across different green technologies. These results are robust to different checks, accounting for a large set of observed characteristics, time‐invariant unobserved heterogeneity and endogeneity issues. In sum, our results support the hypothesis that the ongoing ecological transformation of productive processes may favor firms' competitiveness, but substantial heterogeneity still matters.
