| Zusammenfassung: | This study investigates the response of stock prices and equity options to negative ESG incidents reported by RepRisk for S&P 500 companies between 2006 and 2021, considering the increasing significance of ESG ratings among fund managers and the widespread utilization of financial derivatives by investors. By conducting event studies, we find that, on average, stock prices and option implied volatility show a minimal day-to-day reaction to ESG incidents. However, more severe incidents and those reported by major business sources result in a more pronounced increase in implied volatility within a 10-day period following the event. Additionally, our empirical analysis highlights the influence of financial materiality on asset prices, as financially material ESG incidents lead to significant declines in stock prices and an upward surge in implied volatility. Notably, this effect is particularly prominent for incidents related to Natural Capital. In conclusion, we find that the options market effectively incorporates information regarding ESG events, while stock prices exhibit comparatively lower and less systematic reactivity. |
