On the resilience of ESG firms during the COVID-19 crisis: evidence across countries and asset classes
We use the exogenous shock of COVID-19 to explore the resilience of firms with strong ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings across 63 countries and three asset classes: stocks, credit default swaps (CDS), and corporate bonds. We show that the resilience of strong ESG firms is not a consistent global phenomenon outside of North America and varies considerably across countries. Additional evidence points towards a substitution effect between firm-level sustainability performance as captured by ESG ratings and country-level sustainability performance especially in terms of healthcare coverage. Overall, our findings indicate that the capacity of strong ESG firms to serve as “rainy day assets” is geography-dependent and that ESG considerations can also affect international corporate debt markets.
