The objective was to understand the relationship between environmental, social and governmental (ESG) disclosure and financial performance. An ESG disclosure scorecard enabled a univariate ranked style-based graphical time-series analysis approach to determine associations with share returns. Findings were that portfolios with the highest ranked ESG disclosure had the lowest financial performance whereas the fourth portfolio quintile was found to have the highest CFP. A longer time period for analysis could ensure differentiation between temporary and permanent changes on the dependent variable. This study contributes to ESG literature in South Africa by granulising the metric of analysis using aggregated ESG disclosure scores. nk2018 Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) MBA Unrestricted 2018-05-11T09:02:59Z 2018-05-11T09:02:59Z 30-03-18 2017 Mini Dissertation Naik, D 2017, The relationship between Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) disclosure and financial performance of South African listed equities, MBA Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/64895> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/64895 en © 2018 University of Pretoria.
