摘要
本研究以2015至2022年金融保險業共計52家公司資料為對象，探討金融保險業環境績效與公司財務績效的關係，並進一步探討公司規模對環境績效與財務績效之間的調節效果。研究結果發現環境績效對於財務績效(ROA及ROE)呈現顯著正向影響，環境績效指標中溫室氣體排放和用水及廢水處理績效與財務績效(ROA及ROE)也呈現顯著正相關，顯示企業可以透過卓越的環境績效來提高資源效率改善公司財務績效，另一方面，公司規模對環境效與財務績效在ROA模式中間具有顯著負向調節效果。研究結果可提供管理者對環境績效的決策及提供主管機關推動綠色金融活動的重要參考。關鍵字：金融保險業、財務績效、環境績效、公司規模調節效果
