Abstract

This paper studies ESG engagements in banks by one of the world's largest investors. Banks emerge as the industry receiving the largest number of ESG engagements. We examine the determinants of ESG engagements in banks. We find that banks with more ESG incidents and larger carbon footprint are significantly more likely to be targeted. Overall, the results suggest that the decision to engage banks on ESG issues is motivated by negative ESG news and greater climate risk exposure.
