Abstract

ABSTRACT Examining the influence of air quality on the mispricing of dual-listed companies in the China stock market, this study shows that poor air quality exacerbates the premium between A-share and H-share prices, and that persistent air quality degradation intensifies this effect. Our findings suggest that air pollution-induced cognitive impairments among local investors contribute to A-share overpricing in mainland China, widening the price gap with H-shares traded in Hong Kong. Our results reveal a connection between financial markets and the environment, providing support for green finance initiatives that emphasize the negative market impacts of environmental harm.
