摘要
We investigate the influence of air pollution in a firm's dividend policy in China. We find that firms pay lower amount of cash dividends if the firms are located at a severe air pollution city. Our analyses further show that the effect is stronger in the state-owned firms, key monitoring firms, and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14001 non-certified firms.
