Climate policy uncertainty and executives' opportunistic stock selling
This study empirically tests how climate policy uncertainty influences opportunistic stock selling by executives, using data from Chinese A-share listed companies between 2007 and 2022. The results indicate that climate policy uncertainty increases the incidences of executives' opportunistic stock-selling behavior, with increases in both the number and value of stocks being sold. The mechanism analysis reveals that important influencing channels include corporate default rates, level of corporate risk-taking, and information disclosure quality.
