摘要

Purpose - The paper aims to investigate whether firms invest in corporate social responsibility (CSR) as a risk protection mechanism as the response to increased geopolitical risk (GPR). Design/methodology/approach - The sample of this study includes non-financial listed firms on the Chinese stock market over 2000-2016. Several measures of CSR and GPR were used to examine the relationship between two factors. Further investigation is conducted to find out how increasing uncertainty in the business environment in both geopolitics and macroeconomic policy affects corporate decision-making regarding CSR. Findings - GPR has a significant and positive effect on CSR, meaning that Chinese firms use CSR investment as an insurance mechanism against uncertainty arising from heightened geopolitical uncertainty. Further analysis indicates a negative joint effect of GPR and uncertainty in macroeconomic policy on CSR and shows that it can exhaust firms' resources and offset their individual positive impacts on CSR at the extreme level of uncertainty. The findings are robust to the choices of proxies, model specifications and endogeneity concerns. Originality/value - This study sheds light on the existing literature by providing empirical evidence on the positive relationship between GPR and CSR. The findings of this study support the risk management view, in which firms engage more in CSR as a form of insurance mechanism to react to geopolitical uncertainty. This is also the first empirical study investigating the joint effect of GPR and economic policy uncertainty on CSR.
