Abstract: The two specific corporate environmental strategies discussed here are the "end-of-pipe" and the integrated pollution prevention approaches, as reflected by the actual physical environmental performance of the companies, and following the concept of environmental shareholder value (ESV; Schaltegger & Figge, 2000). The research described applies multiple regression analysis to the data in order to understand the relationship between the environmental and economic performance of firms. The analysis takes into account the influence of a number of important control variables. These include country of origin, processes operated by firms, and firm size. The results of the analysis indicate that corporate environmental strategies may have an important influence on the relationship between environmental and economic performance.
