摘要

本研究探讨了企业采用可持续发展目标对印度新兴市场股价同步性的影响，重点关注企业特定信息的传播。利用来自印度公司的数据，分析表明，可持续发展目标的采用通过增强股市流动性和吸引更多分析师的报道，降低了股价的同步性。这种效应在非国有企业和机构持股比例较高的企业中更为明显。进一步分析发现，PEOPLE可持续发展目标子类别对股价同步性的影响最为显著。研究结果对政策制定者、企业和投资者具有重要意义，表明有必要激励企业采用可持续发展目标，以提高市场透明度和明智的投资决策。更具体地说，企业可以利用激励相容合同来增加可持续发展目标的采用，使企业利益与可持续发展目标保持一致，从而进一步减少信息不对称和股价同步性。

Corporate SDG adoption, share price synchronicity, and the role of incentive-compatible contracts in India

This study explores the impact of corporate SDG adoption on share price synchronicity in India's emerging market, focusing on the dissemination of firm-specific information. Using data from Indian firms, the analysis demonstrates that SDG adoption reduces share price synchronicity by enhancing stock market liquidity and attracting greater analyst coverage. The effect is stronger in non-state-owned firms and those with high institutional ownership. Further analysis reveals that subcategory PEOPLE SDGs has the most pronounced impact on share price synchronicity. The findings offer significant implications for policymakers, firms, and investors, suggesting the need to incentivize corporate SDG adoption to promote market transparency and informed investment decisions. More specifically, firms can leverage incentive-compatible contracts to increase SDG adoption, aligning corporate interests with sustainability goals, which further reduces information asymmetry and share price synchronicity.
