中文摘要

The empirical findings in this paper show that CSR mitigates the firm-specific risk of Chinese firms, but exacerbates the market risk since CSR is associated with higher market risk. In addition, the returns of CSR-minded firms rise faster than those of less CSR-minded firms when the stock market return is positive, indicating that Chinese investors value firms' CSR performance when the stock market is up. The 'upside' effect is driven by the positive news effect and reliability effect, especially pronounced for firms with a lower level of government ownership and firms whose CSR policies are less driven by agency problems.
英文摘要

本文探討中國市場中，企業社會責任與公司風險的關係。實證結果顯示：企業社會責任能減緩公司特有風險，但與系統風險則呈現正向關係。當大盤報酬率為正，企業社會責任表現較佳的公司報酬率上升速度較快，此情形主要是由「正面的新聞效果」及「信賴效果」所造成，對於政府持股較低及代理問題較小的企業尤其明顯。
