Using the multivariable simultaneous quantile regression and data from 1 January 2017 to 29 February 2024, we examine daily and monthly responses of energy and agriculture markets to climate disclosure risk, energy risk, market sentiment, geopolitical risk, and economic policy risk. The sample covers the global market, Australia, Canada, European Union (EU), Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, the United Kingdom (UK), and the United States (US). The results show that climate disclosure risk creates both positive and negative shocks on the energy and agriculture markets and the impacts are asymmetric across quantiles in different economies. The higher climate disclosure risk, the greater impacts of crude oil future on the energy sector in North America (Canada and the US) and Europe (EU and the UK), but no greater effects in Asia Pacific (Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore). The agriculture sector can hedge against economic policy and geopolitical risks, but it is highly exposed to climate disclosure and energy risks. This study timely contributes to the modest literature on the asymmetric effects of climate disclosure risk on the energy and agriculture markets at the global and national levels. Our findings offer practical implications for policy makers and investment practitioners in understanding financial effects of mandating CRD to diversify risks depending upon market conditions and policy uncertainty.agricultureCRDenergyfinancial marketsimultaneous quantileclimate disclosure riskConference Contribution - unpublishedANZSRC::350201 Environment and climate financeANZSRC::350208 Investment and risk managementANZSRC::300210 Sustainable agricultural developmentANZSRC::380199 Applied economics not elsewhere classified
