The Impact of ESG Scores on Corporate Financial Performance: Moderating Role of Gender Diversity
Abstract
ABSTRACT
This study aims to examine the impact of environmental, social and governance (ESG) scores on corporate financial performance and the moderating role of gender diversity in this relationship. This study uses 80 samples of companies listed on the Indonesian stock exchange. Samples were taken using a purposive sampling approach. The dependent variable in this study is corporate financial performance, the independent variable is the ESG scores, the moderating variable is gender diversity. In the context of this study, a high ESG score describes a company that has a high risk in ESG. The hypothesis was tested using multiple regression analysis. The results of this research show that there is a negative relationship between ESG risk scores and corporate financial performance. The empirical analysis provides evidence for a moderating effect of gender diversity on the relationship between ESG scores and corporate financial performance. Investors need to pay attention not only to financial aspects but also to environmental, social and governance aspects as non-financial factors in making investment decisions.
Keywords: ESG Scores, Financial Performance, Gender Diversity
