Data for "Religion on CGG"

This dataset and Stata do file are created for the replication of paper 'The power of Informal Institutions: Evidence from the Impact of Religious Culture on Corporate Green Governance in China'  by L.Yang, Y.WANG and H.Geng. Beyond formal environmental regulations, we specifically investigate the role of religious culture in informal regulations influencing corporate green governance (CGG) practices. By employing a unique instrumental variable, namely the number of religious sites per city during Qing dynasty, we delve into the causal impact of religious culture on CGG, focusing on pollutant discharge fees (PDF) and environmental information disclosure (EID). Our dataset applies 848 Chinese A-share listed firms across 14 polluting industries from 2009 to 2018.Stata Dataset: Finaldata_2009to2018.dtaStata do-file: FinalResults_code.do<br>
