Climate Change Risk Disclosure in Europe: The Role of Cultural-Cognitive, Regulative, and Normative Factors
ABSTRACT Climate change is a key issue faced by the contemporary world. Through the lens of neoinstitutionalism and the normativity concept, this study examines whether cultural, regulative, and normative dimensions affect the quality of climate change risk disclosures. This paper uses a sample of 653 European companies and measures the quality of their disclosures based on Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) ratings. The results show that the quality of such disclosures is associated with cultural and normative dimensions, but substantive legitimacy is found to be influenced by all the examined institutional factors. The interactions between the examined cultural and normative dimensions are shown to be (not) important for firms that operated in weaker (stronger) regulative contexts prior to Directive 2014/95/EU. This study provides a better understanding of the challenges related to climate change reporting and the role of institutional differences in the process of achieving normativity in cross-national contexts such as that of the European Union.
