| Research Abstract |
Our analysis examines the effects of environmental performance on financial performance using the data of Japanese manufacturing firms. Our estimation results show the different effects of each environmental performance on financial performances. Next, we analyze whether environmental information of firms should be mandatorily disclosed or disclosed voluntarily. Our model shows that voluntary approach may induce firms to invest more than mandatory disclosure policies because the effects of asymmetric information exist.
