Sammendrag
Stakeholders’ interest in firms have increased in recent years and ESG rating have

become more important. Previous literature has had difficulties concluding on the

effect of ESG rating on financial performance. The ESG performance of firms in

the Nordic countries are relatively high. This thesis will investigate the relationship

between ESG performance and financial performance in the Nordics. Also,

extending our investigation by deconstructing the ESG score. The updated ESG

rating from Thomson Reuters is a measure for the independent variable and ROA

is a measure for financial performance. Based on correlation analysis and results

from a fixed effect regression we can conclude that the relationship is significant

and negative for firms in the Nordics. Furthermore, the relationship is a onedirectional

causal relationship, where ESG rating affect financial performance in

the subsequent period negatively.
