Abstract

The Paris Agreement, signed at the end of 2015, aims to align financial flows with a path to low greenhouse gas emissions and climate-resilient development, guiding financial markets to directly participate in sustainable development via environmental, social, and governance (ESG) activities. As the COVID-19 pandemic provides an excellent opportunity to evaluate how exogenous shocks influence the functioning of the economic system, this research extends the double bootstrap truncated regression model proposed by Simar and Wilson (2007) by incorporating undesirable outputs to analyze how the pandemic affects the relationship between ESG dimensions and commercial bank performance.
