Abstract
This paper selects Chinese A-share listed companies as a data sample from 2012 to 2022 to explore the role of ESG performance on corporate fraud. It is found that ESG performance has a significant inhibitory effect on corporate fraud. Regarding mediation channels, ESG performance can effectively inhibit corporate fraud through the mediating roles of alleviating financing constraints and improving information transparency.
