Sambandet mellan aktiekurseroch hållbarhetsprestation : En eventstudie om Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe

Ahlrik, Alma, Kamras, Hertha January 2020 (has links)
Denna studie undersöker indexinkluderingar och indexexkluderingars påverkan på europeiska företags aktiekurser genom att studera bolag som inkluderats i eller exkluderats ur hållbarhetsindexet Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe under perioden 2017–2019. Vidare undersöks även specifikt svenska bolag som inkluderats, exkluderats eller bibehållit sin plats i indexet under samma tidsperiod. Detta till följd av det ökade intresset och utbudet av ESG- relaterade investeringar i världen, inte minst i Europa. En standardmässig eventstudiemetod baserad på marknadsmodellen används för att på kort sikt undersöka detta eventuella samband. Vi kan i resultatet inte finna några starka bevis på att en annonsering i sig har någon tydlig påverkan på företagens aktieavkastning för vare sig europeiska eller svenska bolag. Däremot finner vi att svenska bolag som behållit sin plats eller inkluderats i indexet visar en positiv genomsnittlig kumulativ avvikelseavkastning (CAR) mellan två och tio dagar efter annonseringsdagen. Det kan trots det inte bevisa indexets relevans för marknaden vilket stödjer tidigare studiers resultat. / This paper examines the impact of index inclusions and index exclusions on the share prices of European companies by studying companies that are included or excluded from the Dow Jones Sustainability Index Europe during the period 2017-2019. Furthermore, Swedish companies that have been included, excluded or retained their place in the index during the same time period are also specifically examined. This due to the increased interest and supply of ESG- related investments in the world, especially in Europe. A standard event study method based on the market model is used to investigate this possible connection in the short term. We cannot find strong evidence that an announcement has any evident impact on companies' return on investment for either European or Swedish companies. On the other hand, we find that Swedish companies that have retained their place or are included in the index show a positive average cumulative abnormal return (CAR) between two and ten days after the announcement date. Despite this, the results cannot prove the index's relevance to the market which supports previous studies.
