Abstract

This paper investigates the role of aggregate disagreement in the relationship between environmental, social, and governance (ESG) scores and future stock returns in the United States (US), European Union (EU), and United Kingdom (UK). We find that firms with high ESG scores are likely to have higher exposure to aggregate disagreement than firms with low ESG scores because of the divergence of opinions about long-term earnings growth. Consistent with our conjecture, the results suggest that when aggregate disagreement is high, a profitable trading strategy is to long firms with low ESG scores and to short those with higher ESG scores. Our results have clear implications for the growing debate over ESG investment strategies.

ESG 和总体分歧
本文研究了总体分歧在美国、欧盟和英国的环境、社会和治理(ESG)得分与未来股票回报之间关系中的作用。我们发现,与 ESG 分数低的公司相比,ESG 分数高的公司可能更容易受到总体分歧的影响,因为对长期盈利增长的看法存在分歧。与我们的猜想一致,结果表明,当总体分歧较大时,有利可图的交易策略是做多 ESG 分数较低的公司,做空 ESG 分数较高的公司。我们的结果对有关 ESG 投资策略的日益激烈的争论有明显的影响。
