This thesis analyzes the impact of ESG performance on stock returns in capital markets. Da tasets of globally listed companies in the automotive, chemical, apparel manufacturer and re tailer, and utility industries are considered. Portfolios with the best (worst) ranked companies
in terms of ESG are constructed. The results of four multiple regression models show no sig nificant results for portfolios composed of the best ESG companies in any of the considered
industries. Portfolios consisting of the lowest-rated chemical and apparel manufacturer and re tailer companies generate significantly positive abnormal returns, while the automotive and
utility portfolios show no significant results.
