• W1570209723 abstract "Purpose – This paper aims to examine whether capital market rewards firms with good corporate sustainability practices in an international setting by using the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI hereafter) as an integrated measure of firm sustainability performance. Design/methodology/approach – There are two alternative theories regarding the impact of sustainability on firm value. The value-creating theory predicts that integration of environmental and social responsibility into corporate strategies and practices reduces firm risk and promotes long-term value creation. The value-destroying theory on sustainability suggests that managers may engage in socially responsible activities at the expense of shareholders. To perform empirical tests, we use a large international sample for a period of 13 years between 1999 (the first year when DJSI became available) and 2011. To control for self-selection bias and simultaneity, the authors use lagged values of sustainability performance in a robustness check. Findings – The authors find a positive relation between sustainability performance and firm value, after controlling for variables that have been found to affect firm value in the existing literature. The test results are consistent with the value enhancing theory (as opposed to the shareholder expense theory) regarding the role of sustainability engagement in firm valuation. Furthermore, the positive impact of sustainability engagement on firm value is primarily driven by countries with strong investor protection and with high disclosure levels. Research limitations/implications – A positive impact of sustainability performance on firm value supports the value-creating theory and rejects the value-destroying theory. Test results also suggest a more pronounced market response to corporate sustainability in countries with stronger shareholders protection and higher requirement for financial transparency. Practical implications – Given the growing international capital market and intensifying global competition, the valuation implications of sustainability in an international context is of practical interest to management, investors and regulators worldwide. Originality/value – First, it is an initial attempt to test an integrated measure of the “triple-bottom-line” definition of sustainability in an international setting. Second, our paper studies the international variation in market valuation of firm sustainability performance in terms of the value enhancing versus shareholder expense theories on sustainability. The authors explore the relevance of sustainability performance in relation to the investor protection and the reporting environment across countries." @default.
