- Abstract
This paper focuses on A-share listed companies in non-financial industries in China from 2013 to 2022 as the research subject, and empirically analyzes the impact of ESG evaluation on corporate financing constraints. The study reveals that strong ESG performance significantly alleviates corporate financing constraints, with robust and reliable results. Furthermore, through grouping tests, it is evident that the effect of ESG performance on alleviating financing constraints is particularly pronounced in companies that voluntarily disclose their ESG performance. Hence, it is imperative for enterprises to prioritize the development of ESG practices, and for governments to enhance incentives and guidance.
