Abstract

ABSTRACT This study utilizes ESG rating data from nine rating agencies covering Chinese A-share listed companies from 2006 to 2022 to construct a more rational measurement of ESG rating divergence and examines its impact on stock price volatility. The results indicate that excessive ESG divergence worsens stock price volatility, but this linkage between divergence and volatility is mitigated when corporate information disclosure compliance improves.
