Abstract
This study presents a model to assess credit risk in Chinese listed companies, with a particular focus on incorporating carbon-related factors. By integrating macroeconomic indicators, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) scores, and industry variables, the study examines the impact of carbon risk on default probabilities. Notably, it highlights a negative correlation between high ESG scores and default risks, emphasizing the importance of environmental factors in credit risk analysis within the carbon finance market. These findings provide valuable insights for credit risk management, particularly in relation to environmental sustainability and the pricing of carbon assets.
