摘要：
This study explores the effects of corporate ESG performance on stock price synchronicity, using data from Chinese listed companies from 2010 to 2021. We find strong evidence that high-level corporate ESG performance improves the stock price synchronicity. We address the endogeneity concerns using method such as PSM test. Furthermore, corporate ESG performance has a "noise reduction" effect. That is, ESG performance reduces information asymmetry and thus improves stock price synchronicity. In addition, the "noise reduction" effect of ESG performance is significantly higher in state-owned companies and companies with high investor trust.
