Abstract
This study investigates the moderating effect of ESG controversies on the relationship between ESG factors and Corporate Financial Performance (CFP) in the oil and gas industry. Using PLS-SEM on a sample of 264 global oil and gas firms, the results confirm that ESG controversies moderate the relationship between environmental and social factors and CFP, with increased negative news weakening the relationship. The study also finds that ESG controversies negatively affect CFP.
