报告摘要：
This paper examines whether information about carbon emissions is associated with the market value of firms. By using voluntary disclosures of international firms reported to CDP, we test if a high level of carbon emissions decreases the firm value. After controlling for a firm’s likelihood to provide voluntary carbon emission disclosures, we find the level of carbon emissions is negatively related to the firm value. The negative impact is more prominent for firms in a country with a carbon emissions trading scheme and with stringent environmental regulations. We also find corporate governance reduces the negative value effect of carbon emissions.
