This study examines the association between CEO political ideology and corporate environmental, social, and governance(ESG)performance, reporting and assurance decisions, using a sample of S&P 500 firms from 2015 to 2022. The empirical results suggest that firms led by liberal CEOs exhibit higher ESG performance compared to those led by conservative CEOs. However, CEO political ideology does not significantly influence the decision to issue ESG reports. Furthermore, firms with liberal CEOs demonstrate a stronger preference for engaging the Big Four accounting firms to perform ESG assurance services, and this preference is significantly amplified under the moderating effect of peer influences. This study contributes to the literature by offering empirical insights into the impact of CEO political ideology on ESG-related decisions and elucidating key determinants in ESG assurance provider selection.參考文獻 一、 中文文獻 吳育芬與徐瑞麟,2014,美國政治獻金制度運作及查核業務專題考察報告,監察院。 二、 英文文獻 Agarwala, N., Pareek, R., and Sahu, T.
