Abstract

The relationship between companies' environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data and their financial performance is of significant interest. The primary aim of this study was to investigate whether the ESG scores of companies in the BIST Sustainability Index impact their financial performance. By analysing the relationship between ESG scores and financial performance indicators of 26 companies, whose ESG scores were calculated by S&P Global for the period 2018-2022, using the panel data analysis method, we found compelling results. ESG factors were found to have a significant and positive effect on return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), net profit margin (NPM), and asset growth (AGR) but a negative effect on the market-to-book ratio (MBR).

Abstract

Şirketlerin ESG verileri ile finansal performansları ilişkisi son zamanlarda literatürde sıklıkla araştırılan konulardan biridir. Bu çalışmada temel amaç; güncel BIST Sürdürülebilirlik Endeksi’nde yer alan şirketlerin ESG skorlarının finansal performansları üzerinde etkisinin olup olmadığını test etmektir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda; S&P Global tarafından ESG “skoru” hesaplanan 26 firmanın, 2018-2022 dönemindeki ESG skorlarıyla finansal performans göstergeleri arasındaki ilişki panel veri analizi yöntemiyle incelenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar; ESG faktörlerinin; aktif karlılığı (ROA), özsermaye karlılığı (ROE), net kar marjı (NPM), ve aktif büyüme (AGR) üzerinde pozitif yönlü anlamlı bir etki ancak Piyasa Değeri/Defter Değeri (MBR) üzerinde negatif bir etkisi olduğunu göstermiştir.
