摘要
We investigate the effect of corporate green activity on the stock price crash risk. Using 2,222 US companies from 2002 to 2021, we find solid evidence that green activity is significantly related to lower firms' price crash risk. Economically, a firm's price crash risk is reduced by 31.8% - 42.9% for participating in green activities. Moreover, the empirical results show that this negative effect is more substantial during high-climate risk periods. Our findings remain unchanged after controlling for endogeneity issues and several robustness tests.
