Additionally, the study investigates the impact throughout different time periods, regional effect and sentiment asymmetry. However, limited supporting evidence is found for online ESG sentiment and CDS spread in the banking sector when it comes to regional differences, asymmetric relationships for the ESG sentiment and during periods of economic uncertainty. The study contributes insight into ongoing... (More)
