Abstract
It is well studied that companies which take initiatives in environmental, social, and governance projects and have higher corporate social responsibility ratings enjoy lower credit costs. However, it remains a puzzle whether such companies take advantage of the low costs and increase their leverages accordingly. This study focuses on the relationship of CSR ratings and financial leverages taking by the organizations and further tries to formulate a causal link between them using lagged variables.
