Resumo

O presente estudo tem como objetivo investigar o papel do monitoramento de analistas no desempenho Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) de companhias abertas brasileiras. Para atingir o objetivo proposto, foram estimadas regressões com dados em painel ao longo do período 2010-2022, sendo a amostra final composta por 136 companhias abertas brasileiras com dados disponíveis pela Refinitiv Eikon. Os principais resultados indicam que o monitoramento dos analistas pode ser considerado um eficaz mecanismo externo de governança corporativa no contexto brasileiro, capaz de otimizar o desempenho ESG das companhias abertas, especialmente na dimensão de governança corporativa. Nesse sentido, este estudo preenche uma lacuna na literatura nacional ao fornecer, até o presente momento, a primeira evidência empírica sobre o efeito do monitoramento de analistas no desempenho ESG das companhias. Por fim, contribui de forma prática para investidores, que cada vez mais têm considerado critérios ESG ao tomar decisões de investimento.
