【报告摘要】
Exploiting the staggered implementation of mandatory non-financial reporting requirements worldwide with a difference-in-differences design, we find that green innovation outcomes, measured with green patents and green patent citations, increase significantly post-mandate introduction. This effect is stronger for firms with poor pre-mandate ESG performance. Plausible channels facilitating post-mandate increased green innovation include i) knowledge spillovers associated with enhanced U.S. institutional investor ownership, and ii) strengthened internal sustainability infrastructure. We also find industry leaders, who face greater proprietary costs, shift their efforts from patented to unpatented (trade secrets) green innovations post-mandate to protect their proprietary information while generating favorable environmental performance outcomes.
