Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Scores and Financial Performance of Multilatinas: Moderating Effects of Geographic International Diversification and Financial Slack
This paper examines whether a firm's financial performance (FP) is associated with superior environmental, social and governance (ESG) scores in emerging markets of multinationals in Latin America. The study addresses the current research gap on this issue; it develops hypotheses and tests them by applying linear regressions with a data panel drawn from the Thomson Reuters Eikon™ database to analyse data on 104 multinationals from Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru between 2011 and 2015. The results suggest that the relationship between the ESG score and FP is significantly statistically negative. Furthermore, in examining environmental, social and governance separately to accurately determine each variable's relationship to multilatinas' FP, the results reveal a negative relationship. Finally, the empirical analysis provides evidence for a moderating effect of financial slack and geographic international diversification on the relationship between ESG dimensions and firms' FP. This study furthers understanding of the relationship between ESG dimensions and FP for the Latin American business context.

CEO leadership : navigating the new era in corporate governance
\"The more that board members and CEOs understand their own and each other's roles, the stronger the company's performance will be in the long term. Cole draws from his long career as a corporate lawyer to set the stage in the boardroom: what the best practices are, how boards can and should be chosen, which codes of conduct are essential to maintain trust and stability. More distinctively, he also brings an inventory of experience that enriches and illuminates the book. This book is like having a mentor in your pocket\"-- Provided by publisher.
