ESG Governance Metrics and Market Valuation in Emerging Financial Markets

Yewande Kolade

Read Abstract

This paper examines the relationship between environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics, particularly governance mechanisms, and market valuation in emerging financial markets. Drawing on empirical evidence from previous studies across multiple emerging economies and foundational work by Ogundipe (2019) on Nigerian deposit money banks, this research synthesizes findings on how board characteristics, ownership structures, and regulatory contexts influence firm value. A critical distinction emerges between substantive governance, characterized by active board oversight, meeting frequency, and stakeholder engagement, and symbolic governance, which involves formal compliance structures without demonstrable monitoring intensity. Evidence indicates that markets in emerging economies reward observable governance actions rather than merely stated independence, with board diligence, gender diversity, and sustainability committees showing consistent positive associations with firm valuation. However, the governance pillar of ESG demonstrates more mixed effects compared to environmental and social dimensions, suggesting context-dependent valuation impacts. Ownership concentration, regulatory reforms, and industry-specific factors moderate these relationships. The findings have significant implications for corporate boards seeking to enhance market value, investors incorporating governance diagnostics into valuation models, and policymakers designing disclosure frameworks that emphasize auditable governance intensity over formal compliance checklists.

André Houndjo

Read Abstract

The objective of this study is to examine the factors contributing to the delay in primary banks granting credit to individuals. For this purpose, we collected data from 101 individuals using paper questionnaires. Subsequently, we constructed a database to organize the recorded data. Using the R software, we performed data processing. Our analysis involved two methods: descriptive analysis and econometric analysis.

The findings from this analysis indicate that internal organization, file quality, and administrative procedures for processing files have a significant impact on the delayed implementation of credit. To address these issues, we have developed recommendations for the managers of these institutions based on the obtained results. These recommendations aim to alleviate the problems associated with slowness in credit processing.
