チリ上場企業のパネルデータ(2015-2022)を用い、ボランタリーなESG開示のピラー(環境・社会・ガバナンス)と債務コストの関連を検証。環境とガバナンス開示は債務コスト低減と一貫して関連する一方、社会開示は弱い。営業利益率が高いほど開示と債務コストの負の関連が強まり、信頼性メカニズムを示唆。

English

Using panel data of Chilean listed firms (2015-2022), this study examines the association between voluntary ESG disclosure pillars and cost of debt. Environmental and governance disclosures are consistently associated with lower debt costs, while social disclosure shows weaker links. Higher operational profitability strengthens the negative association, supporting a credibility-based mechanism.

日本のGX文脈において

日本ではSSBJ開示が任意から義務化へ移行する中、開示の信頼性が資本コストに与える影響は重要。本研究成果は、日本企業が開示の質を高めることで資金調達優位性を得る可能性を示唆し、投資家対応や統合報告書の作成に示唆を与える。

In the global GX context

This study contributes to global disclosure scholarship by showing that voluntary ESG disclosure is credit-relevant when pillar-specific signals are interpretable and anchored in operational capacity. It offers insights for emerging markets and complements TCFD/ISSB frameworks by highlighting the role of credibility in debt pricing.

📄 Abstract(原文)

ABSTRACT Grounded in signaling and disclosure theory, we examine when and which voluntary ESG disclosure pillars are associated with firms' cost of debt in an emerging market setting characterized by voluntary reporting, concentrated ownership, and debt centered corporate finance. Using firm‐ and year‐fixed‐effects models and several robustness checks on a panel of Chilean listed firms from 2015 to 2022, we find that environmental and governance disclosures are more consistently associated with lower debt costs, whereas social disclosure shows weaker and less stable associations. Higher operational profitability strengthens the negative association between pillar disclosure and the cost of debt, consistent with a credibility‐based mechanism in which creditors appear to place greater weight on voluntary disclosure when it is anchored in observable operational capacity. By contrast, additional information‐channel tests show no robust direct or moderating role for institutional ownership or stock‐market liquidity. Robustness tests using alternative measures and sample restrictions preserve the operational profitability interaction patterns; dynamic specifications suggest that pillar main effects are estimated less precisely, supporting a cautious interpretation centered on credibility‐contingent associations rather than unconditional disclosure effects. Finally, reverse‐causality diagnostics provide no systematic evidence that lower borrowing costs precede higher subsequent ESG disclosure. Overall, the evidence is consistent with pillar specific differences in materiality and verifiability under voluntary disclosure regimes in debt financing centered markets with concentrated ownership. Our study contributes to the literature by clarifying that voluntary ESG disclosure is more likely to be credit‐relevant when creditors can interpret the pillar‐specific signal and when operational profitability enhances its credibility.
