We find consistent evidence that institutional shareholders influence firms to engage in better CSR performance using two separate quasi-natural experiments.First,we identify an exogenous discontinuity in institutional ownership around the Russell index threshold,and find a significantly positive effect of instrumented ownership on CSR using two-stage least-square specifications.Secondly,we use exogenous shocks to unrelated industries held by a given firms institutional shareholders to measure the shift in shareholder attention,and thereby the monitoring intensity.We find that when shareholders loosen their monitoring due to less attention,firms tend to act in a less responsible way.In addition,we show that institutional shareholders exert their influence on firms CSR performance by initiating more CSR shareholder proposals.
