Effect Of Environmental Performance Research Articles

Health burden, environmental decentralization and associated political achievements in China

Environmental pollution has had a negative impact on the population’s well-being, impeding the pursuit of a better standard of living. This study seeks to investigate the impact of environmental decentralization in China on the health burden, thereby expanding research on environmental federalism, health, and welfare. Using panel data from 30 Chinese provinces, the empirical findings show that good environmental performance and moderate economic development significantly reduce the environmental health burden. Notably, as environmental decentralization increases, the impact of environmental performance becomes more pronounced, particularly in terms of environmental administration and monitoring. The effect of environmental performance in reducing health burdens is more visible in the northern and western regions with relatively severe pollution, as well as in the subsample with higher health burdens. Overall, this paper emphasizes the importance of political institutional factors in reducing the health burden.

Understanding interdependency of sustainability dimensions from the lens of collaborative relationship conditions: findings from an emerging economy

PurposeDrawing on the relational view and contingency theories, this study explores supply chain relationship conditions' roles in interrelationships between environmental, social and supply chain performance (SCP), i.e. triple bottom line (TBL).Design/methodology/approachThe data from industries and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used to validate the proposed model. Interviews with industry experts were conducted to further understand the findings.FindingsThe authors find that relationship conditions, such as inventory information sharing, dependency, opportunistic behavior and conflicts, moderate TBL linkages. Interestingly, power asymmetry does not moderate the linkages. Social performance mediates between environmental and SCP. This indirect effect is stronger than the effect of environmental performance on SCP.Originality/valueThis research is perhaps the first to bring a much-needed nuanced view on the importance of relationship conditions for TBL performance linkages. The research further underlines the importance of social performance in an emerging economy.

Evaluation of Impact of ESG Rating and Environmental Performance Factors on the Level of Credit Risk and Shareholder Expectations of Companies in Carbon-Intensive Industries from BRICS Countries

The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of ESG ratings, environmental (E) pillar scores and environmental performance metrics of non-financial companies from BRICS countries on their credit risks (measured by credit rating) and shareholder expectations (measured by enterprise value (EV) to sales multiple). Environmental performance metrics included emission scores, water efficiency scores, environmental management team scores and the ability to cope with climate risks scores. The relevance of the study is underpinned by the limited number of research in the field for BRICS countries and contradictory conclusions in research about the strength and direction of the influence of ESG factors onthe value and financial metrics of the companies. The ordered logit regression and OLS regression models were applied for credit ratings and EV/Sales multiple respectively. The sample included 206 companies from carbon-intensive industries from Brazil, China, India, South Africa and Russia for 2018-2021. Financial and ESG metrics were taken from Refinitiv while companies' credit ratings were taken from Moody’s and S&P. The results showed that the improvements in ESG and E-scores as well as environmental performance metrics hurt companies’ credit ratings. Conversely, the improvements in ESG, E-scores and environmental performance metrics had a positive impact on EV/Sales metrics. The latter confirms the TGMT (too-much-of-a-good-thing) effect of environmental performance as equity investors expect a positive effect from climate-related actions on equity performance in the long term.

Effect of environmental performance, managerial ownership, and dividend policy on the relative value of a company

Relative value of a company is a method of determining the value of an asset by looking at the price of a comparable asset relative to common variables such as income, book value, or sales. The relative value method allows investors to make an equivalent comparison of the values of similar assets. This study aims to examine the environmental performance, managerial ownership and dividend policy on the relative value of a company. The population of this study is all companies that follow the Corporate Performance Rating Assessment Program (PROPER) and have a positive relative value listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2019-2021. The sample determination technique uses a saturated sampling technique with a sample number of 70 companies. In this study, the relative value is measured by combining the value of price to book value (PBV), price to earnings ratio (PER) and price to sales ratio (PSR). Environmental performance is measured using PROPER, managerial ownership is measured using managerial ownership (MOWN) and dividend policy is measured using dividend payout ratio (DPR). The data analysis technique used was multiple linear regression analysis.

The effects of environmental performance and green innovation on corporate venture capital

The aim of this study is to provide investors, policymakers and others with information on how greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and green innovation affect corporate financial performance. Although reporting by corporate venture capital (CVC) firms on GHG emissions as well as their green innovation has increased significantly, especially in the last two decades, little is known about how these two factors affect financial performance. To fill this gap, this article investigates the relationships between environmental performance, green innovation, and financial performance in CVC investments in the US over an 18-year period between 2002 and 2019. The results show the effects of GHG-emission reduction and green innovation, both separately and combined, on the financial performance of CVC firms. These findings contribute to the ongoing debate on the role of corporations in the efforts to reach net-zero emissions. The results indicate that emission reductions give firms a financial advantage over time and that there is a financial interest for corporate investors to drive green innovation. These results have important implications for research and practice and illustrate the importance for corporate investors of including ecological considerations in their overall business strategies to create competitive advantage.

The effect of environmental performance on sustainability reporting: A case of Indonesia

Sustainability reporting reflects business contribution to sustainable development. Indonesia seeks to engage in sustainable development by assessing the companies using the PROPER scale. The study aims to determine whether environmental performance (assessed by the PROPER scale) affect sustainability reporting of companies in Indonesia. The research population includes companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange that have published annual and sustainability reports within five consecutive years. This study employs WarpPLS to analyze data from 85 observations. The results show an increase in the disclosure of sustainability reports when the audit committee and the board of directors hold regular meetings. Companies without governance committees focus more on improving governance rather than disclosing sustainability reports. Environmental performance, when associated with the type of industry and governance committee, will increase sustainability reporting. However, a company with good environmental performance will make the audit committee and directors focus on other responsibilities because the community already understands that a company with a good PROPER rating properly manages its environmental impact and is aware of the importance of sustainable development. This study concludes that environmental performance measured by the PROPER scale positively affects sustainability reporting considering the type of industry, governance committee, audit committee, and board of directors of companies in Indonesia. The Indonesian government must support, facilitate, and encourage companies to achieve the gold category in the PROPER scale and promote higher disclosure of sustainability reports to contribute to sustainable development.

Pengaruh Lingkungan Yang Dimoderasi Oleh Ukuran Perusahaan Terhadap Nilai Perusahaan Pada Pandemi Covid-19

The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between environmental performance and firm value as well as the relationship between environmental disclosure and firm value. The effect of each of these independent variables on the value of the company as well as the study's objective could also be moderated by the company size. There were 62 samples of companies that were listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2019 and 2021. Data analysis was examined by using multiple linear regression analysis with Moderate Regression Analysis method using SPSS 25 for further details. As a result, disclosure and environmental performance on firm value were significantly positive. Next, firm size as a moderator of firm value strengthens its effect, which was significant positive. Meanwhile, the effect of environmental performance did not moderate firm value.

Mediation effect of environmental performance in the relationship between green supply chain management practices, institutional pressures, and financial performance

Pakistan is an agricultural country that uses a huge number of pesticide chemicals and is confronting environmental and economic issues. Firms need to comprehend the integration of green supply chain management (GSCM) practices in their supply chain. The current study intends to analyze the mediation effect of environmental performance (ENP) in the relationship between GSCM practices, institutional pressures (IP), and financial performance (FNP). Therefore, GSCM-IP-ENP-FNP model was developed with the help of an extensive literature review and then proved with the help of data collected from pesticide chemical firms working in Pakistan. Data were collected through a questionnaire from 500 senior-level managers of the pesticide firms of Pakistan. However, 468 responses were retained for analysis keeping in view the limitations of the current study. SPSS version 22 and SmartPLS 3.0 were used for data analysis. Results of the study indicated strong relationships among all variables. It was also concluded that GSCM practices, IP, and ENP have a positive and statistically significant relationship with a firm’s FNP. This study is an important contribution to theory and practice. The study is unique and has significant contributions because it developed and proved the GSCM-IP-ENP-FNP model. The model helped to prove the mediation effect of ENP in the relationship between GSCM practices, IP, and FNP in the pesticide sector of Pakistan, which would be highly beneficial for the managers of pesticide firms as well as for the government to understand the importance of GSCM practices for improving the ENP as well as the FNP of pesticide firms in Pakistan as well as worldwide, especially in developing countries. This study recommends that the management of firms should implement GSCM practices to protect the environment. Government, consumers, and other institutions should exert pressure and the government should provide subsidies, if necessary, to the firms for successful implementation of GSCM practices. Furthermore, it is recommended to conduct further studies in other countries by using the mixed methodology in the pesticide sector as well as in other sectors of the economy to increase the generalizability of the current study.

The Effect Of Environmental Performance On Profitability With Environmental Disclosure As Moderating

Profitability describes a company's capacity to generate profits. Profitability is typically increased by implementing a nonexistent budget system, reducing marketing expenses, and implementing other asset management strategies. However, asset management is not the only factor affecting profitability in this instance. Environment, society, and economy have a fundamentally interdependent relationship. The company's existence in the environment has direct or indirect effects on the environment and social reality. Additionally, the company has great potential to alter the community's environment; therefore, the company's profitability improvement strategy must incorporate environmental considerations. This study focuses on 15 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2018-2020 that received environmental performance ratings from PROPER. Quantitative research utilizing secondary data is conducted in the present study. Purposive sampling was used to carry out the sampling technique. Multiple moderation linear regression analysis, classical assumption testing, and hypothesis testing were employed in the investigation. The results indicated that environmental performance had a positive and statistically significant effect on profitability, with a significance level of 0.000. With a significant value of 0.000, the environmental disclosure variable strengthened the relationship between environmental performance and profitability.

The Effect of Environmental Performance on Firm Value with Mediating Role of Financial Performance in Manufacturing Companies in Indonesia

The purpose of this study is to investigate the determinants of firm value by formulating the relationship between environmental performance and the intervening variable of financial performance. This study analyzes how public companies in Indonesia comply with environmental responsibility and use it as a basis for increasing corporate value. Using the sampling of purposive sampling method, the research was conducted by examining 64 basic industries and mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2016-2018. Empirical testing is done by path analysis. The results of the study suggest that firms are more likely to be able to increase the utility of environmental performance by mediating effects of financial performance. This means that the environmental performance effect is more likely in firms that have superior financial performance. Practically speaking, the results have implications that the implementation of environmental responsibility supported by adequate financial resources can significantly affect the perception of sustainability by company stakeholders and ultimately increase firm value.
