Note(s): This table presents the effect of institutional environment on the relationship between investor protection (ADRI) and stock performance. Institutional environment (IE) variables include: Control of Corruption, Rule of Law, and Creditor Right Index. The dependent variable is the standard deviation of stock return (STD) for columns (1)–(3), idiosyncratic risk (IVOL) for columns (4)–(6), and stock return (RETURN) for columns (7)–(9). Control variables enter the regressions with a one-year lag. All regressions control for country, year-, and industry-fixed effects. Robust standard errors are in parentheses. Superscripts *, ** and *** indicate significance at the 10%, 5% and 1%, respectively
