Corporate Governance, ESG, and Stock Returns around the World
Open accessAbstract
Non-financial performance measures, such as Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) measures, are potentially leading indicators of firms’ financial performance. I draw on the prior academic literature and the concept of ESG materiality to develop new corporate governance and ESG metrics. The new governance and ESG metrics predicted stock returns in a global investable universe over the tested period, suggesting potential investment value in curated ESG signals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
