Tech firms and the renewable energy sector: Exploring the moderating effects of institutional ownership on financial connectedness
Tech firms can play a major role in advancing sustainability practices, particularly through their synergy with the renewable energy sector. However, the existing literature often overlooks firm-level dynamics and uses aggregated data to explore the connectedness between the tech and renewable energy sectors. This paper contributes to the literature by examining the moderating effects of institutional ownership on financial connectedness using firm-level data. We develop a novel dataset on firms’ renewable energy strategies with a large language model and utilize event-study and panel-data analyses to test our hypothesis. Based on data from 129 tech firms from 2011 to 2022, empirical analyses reveal that institutional ownership moderates the financial connectedness between tech firms and the renewable energy sector; however, the results indicate a threshold effect. While firms with low institutional ownership experience a higher impact on performance, performance differences among firms with higher institutional ownership are less pronounced.
期刊介绍:
Research in International Business and Finance (RIBAF) seeks to consolidate its position as a premier scholarly vehicle of academic finance. The Journal publishes high quality, insightful, well-written papers that explore current and new issues in international finance. Papers that foster dialogue, innovation, and intellectual risk-taking in financial studies; as well as shed light on the interaction between finance and broader societal concerns are particularly appreciated. The Journal welcomes submissions that seek to expand the boundaries of academic finance and otherwise challenge the discipline. Papers studying finance using a variety of methodologies; as well as interdisciplinary studies will be considered for publication. Papers that examine topical issues using extensive international data sets are welcome. Single-country studies can also be considered for publication provided that they develop novel methodological and theoretical approaches or fall within the Journal''s priority themes. It is especially important that single-country studies communicate to the reader why the particular chosen country is especially relevant to the issue being investigated. [...] The scope of topics that are most interesting to RIBAF readers include the following: -Financial markets and institutions -Financial practices and sustainability -The impact of national culture on finance -The impact of formal and informal institutions on finance -Privatizations, public financing, and nonprofit issues in finance -Interdisciplinary financial studies -Finance and international development -International financial crises and regulation -Financialization studies -International financial integration and architecture -Behavioral aspects in finance -Consumer finance -Methodologies and conceptualization issues related to finance
