摘要

本文研究了企业的环境、社会和治理（ESG）活动对财务报告质量（FRQ）的影响。研究使用了 2003 年至 2021 年间 65 个国家的 45,877 个公司年度观测数据。在研究模型中，企业特征和各国的宏观经济及制度结构特征均受到控制。本研究发现，ESG 分数越高的公司 FRQ 越高。此外，我们的中介分析表明，财务困境成本是 ESG 影响 FRQ 的重要机制。在考虑了其他 FRQ 测量方法、不同的抽样方案、内生性问题和同时性偏差后，我们的研究结果是稳健的。

Corporate environmental, social, and governance activities and financial reporting quality: An international investigation

This paper examines the impact of firms' environmental, social, and governance (ESG) activities on financial reporting quality (FRQ). The study uses 45,877 firm-year observations from 65 countries between 2003 and 2021. In the research model, firm characteristics and macroeconomic and institutional structure characteristics of the countries are controlled for. This study finds that firms with higher ESG scores have higher FRQ. Additionally, our mediation analysis indicates that financial distress costs serve as a crucial mechanism through which ESG influences FRQ. Our findings are robust after accounting for alternative measures of FRQ, different sampling scenarios, endogeneity issues, and simultaneity bias.
