Does ESG Performance Influence Economic Growth? The Role of Financial Reporting Environment and IFRS Adoption in Türkiye and Selected Turkic Economies

Öz

This study examines the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance and economic growth in Türkiye and selected Turkic economies, with a particular focus on the roles of financial reporting quality and IFRS adoption. Despite growing interest in the macroeconomic implications of sustainability, empirical evidence from emerging and transition economies remains limited, particularly regarding the institutional channels through which ESG influences growth. Using annual panel data for the period 2000–2024, the analysis investigates the impact of ESG performance on GDP growth while controlling for key macroeconomic and financial variables. Financial reporting quality, proxied by regulatory quality, is incorporated to capture institutional conditions, while IFRS adoption is included as an indicator of alignment with international reporting standards. The empirical framework employs panel data techniques that account for cross-sectional dependence and country-specific heterogeneity. The findings indicate that ESG performance has a positive and statistically significant effect on economic growth. Similarly, IFRS adoption contributes positively and significantly to growth, whereas regulatory quality, although positive, is not statistically significant. Overall, the results highlight the importance of financial transparency and sustainability practices in supporting economic growth, while providing new empirical evidence on the institutional and reporting channels through which ESG performance influences growth in emerging and transition economies.
