Resumo

Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar a relação entre o desempenho ambiental, social e de governança (ESG) e o valor das ações em empresas do agronegócio nos países do BRICS.

Design/metodologia/abordagem: A amostra final compreende 196 observações de 39 empresas do agronegócio em cinco países do BRICS, abrangendo o período de 2009 a 2022. Os dados foram coletados do London Stock Exchange Group PLC (LSEG) e analisados por meio de métodos de dados em painel, especificamente Mínimos Quadrados Generalizados (GLS) e Erros-Padrão Corrigidos para Painel (PCSE).

Resultados: Os resultados indicam que a variável ESG apresenta uma relação significativa e positiva com os preços das ações ao longo do período analisado (2009-2022) em ambos os modelos. Isso sugere que os investidores de empresas do agronegócio nos países do BRICS consideram as informações sobre desempenho ESG um fator relevante em suas decisões de investimento. Os achados estão alinhados com a Teoria dos Stakeholders, que enfatiza a importância de construir a confiança dos stakeholders para assegurar investimentos. No entanto, eles também se relacionam com a Teoria da Sinalização, que demonstra que a divulgação de ESG funciona como um sinal confiável da qualidade corporativa, reduzindo a assimetria de informação, e com a Teoria da Legitimidade, que sugere que a adoção de ESG ajuda as empresas a atender às expectativas sociais e institucionais.

Contribuições: Este estudo contribui para o debate acadêmico ao ampliar a literatura sobre o impacto do ESG no agronegócio, particularmente no contexto das economias emergentes dos BRICS, e ao integrar diferentes perspectivas teóricas para explicar como o mercado precifica o desempenho em ESG. Do ponto de vista prático, orienta os investidores na tomada de decisões informadas, na mitigação de riscos e na busca por retornos de longo prazo. Além disso, destaca a relevância social do desempenho em ESG na formação das percepções dos investidores, uma vez que a melhoria nesse desempenho pode atrair mais investimentos e incentivar as empresas do agronegócio a adotarem estratégias mais responsáveis, promovendo, assim, o desenvolvimento sustentável.
