The impact of economic uncertainty on corporate ESG performance: Global evidence
This paper examines the impact of economic uncertainty on firms' overall environmental and social governance (ESG) performance in 3448 companies in 40 economies from 2006 to 2022. It is found that the overall ESG performance of corporations improves with increasing economic uncertainty for both, but more so in developed countries than developing countries. Higher competition further strengthens this relationship indirectly in developed countries but directly weakens it in developing countries. The results are also robust to run different model specifications, samples, and time selections. The findings are consistent with the Stakeholder Theory in developing country firms and a larger group of developed country firms. The results also highlight the substantial influence of economic uncertainty on corporate ESG policies, shedding light on the uncertainty-mitigating aspects of corporate ESG performance.
期刊介绍：
Research in International Business and Finance (RIBAF) seeks to consolidate its position as a premier scholarly vehicle of academic finance. The Journal publishes high quality, insightful, well-written papers that explore current and new issues in international finance. Papers that foster dialogue, innovation, and intellectual risk-taking in financial studies; as well as shed light on the interaction between finance and broader societal concerns are particularly appreciated. The Journal welcomes submissions that seek to expand the boundaries of academic finance and otherwise challenge the discipline. Papers studying finance using a variety of methodologies; as well as interdisciplinary studies will be considered for publication. Papers that examine topical issues using extensive international data sets are welcome. Single-country studies can also be considered for publication provided that they develop novel methodological and theoretical approaches or fall within the Journal''s priority themes. It is especially important that single-country studies communicate to the reader why the particular chosen country is especially relevant to the issue being investigated. [...] The scope of topics that are most interesting to RIBAF readers include the following: -Financial markets and institutions -Financial practices and sustainability -The impact of national culture on finance -The impact of formal and informal institutions on finance -Privatizations, public financing, and nonprofit issues in finance -Interdisciplinary financial studies -Finance and international development -International financial crises and regulation -Financialization studies -International financial integration and architecture -Behavioral aspects in finance -Consumer finance -Methodologies and conceptualization issues related to finance
