High-tech firms
We examine whether the dividend policy of high-tech firms is explained by ESG performance in the triple ESG components (environmental, social, and governance). Using a panel of US-based firms in the technology sector from 2002 to 2021, we find that better ESG scores are linked with a higher likelihood of dividend payments, stability of the amount paid, and implied shareholder returns from the dividend yield. R&D intensity is a constraint of divid…
M&A activity as a driver for better ESG performance
Corporate taxes and high-quality entrepreneurship
We examine the impact of corporate taxation on entrepreneurship, using a quasi-natural experiment, which substantially reduced the corporate tax rate for start-ups located in inland municipalities in Portugal. Using a difference-in-differences approach and IV regression, we find that the tax reform increased firm entry and new firm job creation. The entrepreneurs who took advantage of this tax reform are relatively older, and are better-educated …

After mapping out the committees’ actions and discours…
