中国の高炭素上場企業2006-2022年のパネルデータを用いて、気候リスク開示が炭素パフォーマンスを向上させることを実証。メカニズムとして、グリーン技術革新の促進と財務制約の緩和を特定。中小企業や競争の激しい産業、東部地域で効果が大きい。政策的示唆として、強制的な気候リスク開示枠組みの構築や移行金融の推進を提言。
English
Using panel data of Chinese listed high-carbon companies from 2006-2022, this study demonstrates that climate risk disclosure improves carbon performance. The mechanisms identified are promoting green technological innovation and easing financial constraints. Effects are stronger for smaller firms, in less concentrated industries, and in eastern China. Policy implications include establishing mandatory disclosure frameworks and promoting transition finance.

日本のGX文脈において
中国企業を対象とするが、気候リスク開示と炭素パフォーマンスの因果関係を実証した点は、日本のSSBJ基準や有価証券報告書における気候関連開示の実務にも示唆を与える。特に、グリーン技術革新や資金調達制約の緩和という経路は、日本企業の脱炭素戦略立案にも参考になる。
In the global GX context
This paper provides empirical evidence from China on how climate risk disclosure drives carbon performance, contributing to the global debate on mandatory TCFD-aligned disclosure and its real effects. The findings on green innovation and financial constraints as channels are valuable for understanding disclosure effectiveness beyond Western contexts, supporting ISSB and CSRD implementation.

📄 Abstract(原文)
With growing global concern over climate risk, high-carbon enterprises are assuming an increasingly critical role in strengthening climate resilience and fostering low-carbon development. However, how climate risk disclosure shapes their carbon performance—specifically through what mechanisms and pathways—remains a pivotal yet underexplored question. To address this gap, this study constructs a panel dataset comprising Chinese listed high-carbon companies over the period 2006–2022 and employs a two-way fixed-effects econometric model to assess how climate risk disclosure affects carbon performance while investigating the underlying mediating channel. The empirical results provide robust evidence that enhanced climate risk disclosure improves the carbon performance of high-carbon enterprises. Mechanism analysis indicates that this beneficial outcome is mainly achieved through promoting green technological innovation and easing corporate financial constraints. Heterogeneity analysis further shows that the effect is stronger among smaller companies, firms operating in less concentrated industries, and those headquartered in China’s eastern region. The policy implications derived from these findings include establishing and strengthening a mandatory climate risk disclosure framework, introducing targeted incentives for green innovation and transition finance and tailoring climate risk management strategies according to firm-specific characteristics. Overall, this study underscores climate risk disclosure as a crucial factor in supporting the shift toward low-carbon operations among high-carbon enterprises.
