On 25th May, Raquel Orcos presented the paper “Irresponsible behaviors under the media spotlight. ESG controversies and firm value”, coauthored with Elisabet Garrido, Jaime Gómez and Juan Maícas, in the II Extraordinary Session of the Brown Bag Seminars at the Faculty of Economics and Business of the University of Zaragoza.

This study analyses how the environmental, social and governance (ESG) controversies place the firm under the media spotlight and damage its market value. This research seeks to explore how the specific features of ESG controversies hurt firm value.

In particular, it focuses on three features of ESG controversies: the stakeholder group which is affected (type), the number of stakeholder groups that are affected (scope), and the reiteration of controversies over time (persistence).
