Tiivistelmä: | This study of 267 U.S. firms shows that improved environmental risk management (hereafter as: e-r-m.) is associated with a lower cost of capital. The findings provide an alternative perspective on the environmental-economic performance relationship, having been dominated by the view of improvements in economic performance stemming from better resource utilization. Firms also benefit from improved e-r-m. via a reduction in their cost of equity capital, a shift from equity to debt financing, and higher tax benefits associated with the ability to add debt etc. |
