It constructed a Tobit model to study the impact of ESG performance on financing efficiency in paper mills. Research found that the higher the ESG performance score,the higher the financing efficiency of paper companies. It analyzed the reasons from three aspects:environmental (E),social (S),and corporate governance (G),and it proposed suggestions from the perspectives of enterprises,governments,and investorsbased on the conclusions drawn from the research.
