Summary: Corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) is crucial for sustainable growth, and the motivation behind corporate ESG engagement determines whether it is genuine or just greenwashing. This study explores the motivation of corporate ESG engagement in terms of risk-taking. Analyzing data from Chinese publicly listed firms between 2010 and 2020, it is found that ESG rating significantly reduces corporate risk-taking, even after considering potential endogeneity concerns. The impact of ESG on risk-taking is more significant in firms with lower information transparency, weaker corporate governance, and less external monitoring pressure, highlighting the trade-off between sustainable growth and risk-taking in a weak investor protection institutional environment.

Summary: The research examines the correlation between ESG performance and downside risk in the Chinese equity mutual fund market. It finds a positive association between fund ESG performance and downside risk during the period from July 2018 to March 2021, with a weaker relationship observed during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study proposes three channels through which fund ESG performance could impact downside risk.

Summary: We examine the correlation between ESG performance and stock price fragility using data from Chinese equity funds regarding stock holdings and flow. Our findings show a negative correlation between ESG performance and stock price fragility, where better ESG performance leads to reduced fragility. We also investigate the mechanism through which ESG performance impacts stock price fragility and determine that improved ESG performance decreases investor sensitivity to stock performance, thereby reducing stock price fragility.

Summary: This paper examines the impact of mutual fund herding on China's stock market stability using idiosyncratic volatility as a lens. The study finds that mutual fund herding significantly increases future idiosyncratic volatility for up to one-and-half years, suggesting a persistent destabilizing effect. Additionally, the destabilizing effect is greater for stocks with higher mutual fund ownership and during periods of high investor sentiment. Furthermore, mutual fund herding exacerbates the stock market's instability following China's share reform in 2011. The study's findings are robust to alternative risk measures and China's institutional setting helps address endogeneity concerns.

Summary: Research suggests that liquidity transformation in corporate bond mutual funds may introduce fragility, leading to higher volatility and more selling of bonds with higher fragility in the market. During the COVID-19 crisis, bonds with higher precrisis fragility experienced larger negative returns and bigger reversals.

Summary: This study reveals the positive effect of banking relationships on corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) policies. The research shows that banks are more inclined to grant loans to borrowers with similar ESG profiles and positively influence their subsequent ESG performance, especially when banks have better ESG ratings than borrowers and borrowers are highly dependent on banks. The study also highlights the significance of the bank's ESG rating on borrowers' ESG behavior.

Summary: This study examines the risk-adjusted returns of ESG ETFs before and during the COVID-19 market crash, finding that lower-rated sustainable ETFs tend to outperform higher-rated ESG ETFs in the pre-crash period. During the market crash, the alphas of the models are negative and insignificant. Overall, higher sustainability ratings do not protect ESG ETFs from losses during the downturn, but they do not perform worse than the market.

Summary: We examine the impact of ESG scores on stock returns in the UK and find that companies with lower ESG scores achieve higher returns. Furthermore, the influence of environmental and social factors on returns is more pronounced compared to the overall ESG impact. Our analysis also reveals that the ESG premium is significant for low liquidity securities but not for high liquidity securities, suggesting a relationship between ESG and stock liquidity.

Summary: Sustainable investing has shown significant growth in recent years, with high-sustainable funds outperforming low-sustainable funds and attracting more investments. The COVID-19 pandemic has further increased the performance gap and flow differences between the two types of funds. This suggests a shift in investors' attitudes towards sustainable investing, prioritizing investments with social responsibility.

Summary: Despite the increasing use of ESG ratings, there is substantial disagreement among rating agencies regarding the ratings given to individual firms. This study finds that greater ESG disclosure actually leads to greater ESG rating disagreement, and raters disagree more about ESG outcome metrics than input metrics. It is also observed that ESG disagreement is associated with higher return volatility, larger absolute price movements, and a lower likelihood of issuing external financing.

Summary: The paragraph discusses the powerful spillover effects of fire sales induced by investor redemptions among funds that hold the same assets, which can hurt peer funds' performance and flows, as well as negatively impact bond prices. The study finds that an increase in the fire-sale spillover measure leads to decreased peer fund returns and flows, and an increased likelihood of large bond price drops, with additional support from regression-discontinuity design and various tests. Model-based analyses are used to quantify the financial stability implications.

Summary: Using daily microdata, it was found that corporate-bond funds experienced major outflows during the COVID-19 crisis, especially for funds with illiquid assets and exposure to sectors affected by the crisis. The Federal Reserve bond purchase program helped reverse these outflows by providing liquidity support, particularly for the most fragile funds, with spillover effects on primary market issuance and peer funds. The evidence suggests a bond-fund fragility channel through which the Fed's liquidity backstop transmits to the real economy.

Summary: This study investigates the herding behavior of Chinese open-end fund managers, finding that most types of funds exhibit herding driven by non-fundamental factors. Herding is more pronounced when the market is rising and fund flow is positive, and is influenced by the network structure of common asset holdings. Additionally, herding tends to be more significant under conditions of high volatility and high economic policy uncertainty, with a negative relationship between fund size and herding behavior.

Summary: This paper reviews financial economics-based research on ESG and CSR, with a focus on corporate finance. While some studies have shown a strong relationship between a firm's ESG/CSR profile and activities and its market, leadership, owner characteristics, risk, performance, and value, there are still conflicting hypotheses and unresolved issues requiring further research.

Summary: Observed contract structures set fixed payoffs for stakeholders and assign residual risk to shareholders with decision rights, but with increasing interest in ESG issues, there is sentiment to replace the max shareholder wealth decision rule with max shareholder welfare, without consideration that investors view max welfare in terms of their overall consumption-investment portfolios. Therefore, max shareholder wealth remains the appropriate decision rule.
