Abstract
This study examines whether and how firms’ biodiversity risk exposure affects future stock price crash risk. By analyzing data from US listed companies, we find a significant and positive association between biodiversity risk exposure and future crash risk. The additional analysis indicates that the biodiversity-related transition risks caused by regulations still significantly increase future crash risk, but management's sentiment toward biodiversity-related issues does not significantly affect future crash risk.
