Abstract

This study proposes the multiscale R2 decomposed connectedness approach to investigate the time-frequency contemporaneous and lagged risk spillover between ESG climate and high-carbon assets. We further track the time-varying predictive power of economic policy uncertainty (EPU) and financial stress (FSI) for risk contagion. In the risk connectedness between ESG and high-carbon assets, contemporaneous spillovers dominate in the short term, while lagged spillovers increase over longer timescales. Furthermore, EPU has better predictive power for long-term risk spillover, while FSI excels in forecasting short-term risk spillover. Both exhibit superior performance in predicting contemporaneous risk contagion.
