Abstract

Whether asset pricing model able to evaluate greenhouse gas emission’s return? The authors extend the traditional Fama-French three -factor model by adding momentum to form the Carhart four-factor model-consisting of market, size, value, and momentum factors. Factor mimicking six portfolio is build by the combinations incorporating size with value, momentum, and greenhouse and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity. Inclusion of GHG emissions intensity slightly elevates the model’s R2 demonstrating that factoring in environmental metrics adds explanatory effectiveness power over the standard Carhart model. These results highlight the importance of integrating emissions data when evaluating sustainable investment performance.
