摘要

我们研究了投资者对环境、社会和治理（ESG）因素的情绪是否会对东亚国家企业的信用违约掉期（CDS）利差产生负面影响。我们将《京都议定书》作为公众对 ESG 情绪的外生冲击，并观察到它加强了这种情绪对 CDS 利差的负面影响。此外，我们还发现企业与各自国家之间的 CDS 利差差异以及利差的期限结构具有一致性。我们的研究结果表明，公众对 ESG 的认知可以降低投资者对企业信贷风险的担忧。

Public's evaluation of ESG and credit default swap: Evidence from East Asian countries

We investigate whether investors' sentiment on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors negatively affects a firm's spread for credit default swaps (CDS) in East Asian countries. We use the Kyoto Protocol as an exogenous shock to public sentiment on ESG and observe that it strengthens the negative influence of that sentiment on CDS spreads. Furthermore, we find consistent results on the discrepancy in CDS spreads between firms and their respective countries, as well as the term structure of the spreads. Our findings demonstrate that the public's perception of ESG can reduce investors' concerns about firms' credit risk.
