Do firms increase ESG activities during periods of geopolitical risk? Evidence from Korean business groups
This study examines the impact of the geopolitical risk (GPR) on the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) activities of South Korean business groups. Our empirical results indicate that GPR is positively associated with the ESG activities of South Korean firms, and this relationship is more pronounced among business groups. Furthermore, our results imply that South Korean business groups prioritizing their reputation or operating in a competitive market increase their ESG activities when GPR increases. Specifically, South Korean firms strategically increase their ESG activities during periods of significant GPR to enhance their reputation and build moral capital.
