Environmental Violations in China: Descriptive, Predictive, and Prescriptive analysis
Abstract
Air and water pollution in China has created public concern. In this talk, we discuss our empirical findings about the short-term and long-term implications of Chinese manufacturers who violated environmental regulations. Also, we present a model that can enable Chinese government to use publicly available data to predict which firm is more likely to violate regulations in the future.*
*This talk is based on two research papers: 1. Chris KY Lo, Christopher S Tang, Yi Zhou, Andy CL Yeung, Di Fan, 2018. Environmental Incidents and the Market Value of Firms: An Empirical Investigation in the Chinese Context, M&SOM; and 2. Chris KY Lo, Christopher S Tang, Yi Zhou, 2018.
