This study examines the impact of biodiversity risk exposure on firm efficiency. Analyzing 23,750 firm-year observations from 2001 to 2020, we identify a significant negative relationship between biodiversity risk and firm efficiency. Our research indicates that increased external financing needs and higher capital costs, driven by biodiversity risk, are key channels contributing to reduced firm efficiency. Firms with higher biodiversity risk exposure demonstrate lower efficiency, especially those with greater idiosyncratic volatility. These findings highlight the economic costs and operational challenges posed by biodiversity risk, offering new insights into its direct impact on firm efficiency.
