The study finds that firms with enhanced environmental governance scheme experienced more efficient investments during the COVID-19 outbreak, especially in non-state-owned enterprises, firms unlisted as key pollution monitoring units, and firms with higher financial constraints.
Taking the COVID-19 outbreak as the exogenous shock, we use quarterly reports of Chinese listed firms to examine whether enhanced environmental governance scheme improves corporate investment efficiency over the course of COVID-19. The results show that after the outbreak, firms with greater environmental governance scheme experience more efficient investments, with this effect being more pronounced in non-state-owned enterprises, firms unlisted as key pollutionmonitoring units, and firms with higher financial constraints. The results are robust to a battery of robustness checks. These findings provide new evidence on the importance of environmental governance in reaping economic benefits and resilience during crisis times.
