Abstract

This chapter seeks to examine the level of corporate social performance of the BRICS companies and investigate the effect of the country's governance quality on the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance of the companies. Analysis of the BRICS companies' ESG scores for 2009 - 2018 indicated that the level of ESG performance in the BRICS countries differs from each other considerably. Overall, results of fixed effects regression analysis revealed that governance quality of countries has a positive effect on ESG scores of companies. Based on these findings, it was suggested to improve governance quality thereby encouraging companies to fulfill their social responsibilities.
