中国上市公司年度报告披露及时性实证研究

年度报告作为投资者决策的重要信息源之一,其及时性受到了监管部门和市场研究者的关注。本文通过对中国上市公司1993～2003年间公布的8294份年度报告披露时间进行多元回归分析,发现除盈利公司比亏损公司更及时地公布其年度报告外,标准无保留审计意见公司也较非标准无保留意见的公司更及时地披露其年度报告,证实了中国股票市场存在“好消息早,坏消息晚”披露的基本规律。而且,随着时间推移,我国上市公司年报披露的及时性在逐步提高。

机构投资者持股与企业可持续发展：基于公司治理视角的研究

机构投资者能否有效监督并参与公司治理,进而有效促进持股企业的可持续发展,仍是备受关注的议题。基于公司治理的视角,选取2010—2021年3526家A股上市公司的25625个年度观测值,针对机构投资者持股对持股企业可持续发展的影响及其影响路径展开大样本分析。结果表明：机构投资者持股可通过缓解代理问题,优化内部控制,有效发挥公司治理作用,促进持股企业的可持续发展;同时,与压力敏感型机构投资者持股相比,压力抵制型机构投资者持股对持股企业可持续发展的积极影响更为显著,经内生性检验和稳健性检验后,研究结论依然成立。通过进一步分析发现,机构投资者在国有企业和重污染企业持有股份,对其可持续发展的积极影响更为显著。研究结论为有效发挥机构投资者的外部监督作用、促进企业可持续发展提供了来自微观层面的经验证据。

机构投资者与会计信息质量之关系的实证研究

从会计信息披露的可靠性、相关性、及时性和客观性的角度入手,构建了一个会计信息质量的综合指数,采用多元回归分析的方法对我国机构投资者与上市公司会计信息质量之关系进行了实证研究,并分析了股权分置改革的实施对上述关系的影响.研究结果表明:股权分置改革前后,机构投资者的持股比例、持股的机构投资者数量、前十大流通股东中机构投资者的数量均与会计信息质量正相关;股权分置改革不会影响上述相关关系.     

上市银行信息披露超载的原因分析及其对策研究

我国金融体系是以银行为核心的,故在很大程度上银行信息披露水平的高低直接影响着国家的经济安全。然而,我国上市银行年度报告普遍存在披露超载与关键信息不足、可靠性差、披露及时性不高等问题并存的状况。论文通过对我国16家上市银行2012年年报信息披露现状进行统计分析,探讨了信息披露超载可能引发的问题及信息发生超载的原因。最后,在借鉴国际经验基础上有针对性地提出解决我国上市银行信息披露超载问题的对策。’     

审计师个人经验与审计质量

本文研究了审计师个人经验与审计质量的关系,以及投资者对审计师个人经验的反应。研究结果表明:在控制事务所和公司特征的情况下,审计师个人经验与操控性应计之间存在显著的负相关关系,并且这种负相关关系主要存在于调高盈余的公司组。这一结果说明审计师经验越丰富,越能抑制管理层的机会主义行为。在投资者反应方面,审计师经验越丰富的公司盈余反应系数越大,说明投资者认为审计师经验越丰富,其审计的财务报告可信度越高。进一步检验的结果表明,审计师个人经验对审计质量的提升作用在重要性高的客户和国有企业中更为明显。采用持续经营审计意见衡量审计质量并未改变本文的结论。     

碳中和目标下的机构投资者持股偏好研究——来自绿色债券的证据

绿色债券是为企业绿色转型以及碳中和相关技术提供资金支持,促进绿色低碳化发展的新型融资工具。本文以企业发行绿色债券作为主动承担碳中和责任的观测指标,分析其对机构投资者持股决策的影响。研究发现：企业发行绿色债券后机构投资者持股比例显著提高,其中长期稳定型机构投资者持股比例变化更为显著;绿色债券“绿色”程度越高,机构投资者持股比例越高,表明碳中和目标下,机构投资者具有一定绿色偏好。机制检验发现,媒体关注和获取战略性资源是企业发行绿色债券以吸引机构投资者的两个重要渠道。横截面分析显示,上述结果在国有企业、信息质量较高、社会责任水平较高样本中更为显著。此外,发行绿色债券还能带来更高的超额回报。本文结论不仅为机构投资者绿色偏好提供了经验证据,还为进一步完善绿色金融体系以助力实现碳中和目标提供了理论参考。     

企业内部控制信息披露与财务绩效的关系研究

内部控制信息披露产生资本市场的信息,是保护投资者利益的制度基础。内部控制信息披露的详尽程度关系与投资者的利益相关,也与公司的治理的有效性相关。本文以房地产行业为例,选取2012年上市公司年度报告中数据为研究对象,运用统计分析方法,研究内部控制信息披露与和财务绩效间的关系。结果表明,企业的内部控制信息披露的越详细,则财务绩效越好。     

A systematic literature review on risk disclosure research: State-of-the-art and future research agenda

This study presents a systematic review of the existing literature on corporate risk disclosure (RD). The study reviews 104 studies published in 51 high-ranked journals over the period 1999–2019 following the systematic literature review methodology developed and employed by past works. The results highlight the substantial knowledge gaps and inconclusive findings of extant literature in several aspects, including identifying avenues for further research in terms of research designs, settings, scope and theories. The findings also indicate that limited studies focus on developing countries, private institutions, and non-profit organizations. Similarly, our findings show that existing research that examines other firm and cross-country drivers of risk, such as national accounting, auditing, economic, governance, language, and legal systems, are not well documented. By contrast, our review illustrates that there is an increase in the number of studies published in recent years with over one-half of those that we review in this research published in the last six years of our sample period. Furthermore, our results suggest that past review studies have also focused excessively on the immediate firm-level characteristics, such as firm size, growth, leverage, value, and cost of capital. The findings of our review will be of great interest to academics, accounting standard-setters, managers and practitioners, policymakers, regulators, researchers, and students.     

Bankruptcy prediction for Korean firms after the 1997 financial crisis: using a multiple criteria linear programming data mining approach

The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the data mining applications, such as classification, which have been used in previous bankruptcy prediction studies and credit rating studies. Our study proposes a multiple criteria linear programming (MCLP) method to predict bankruptcy using Korean bankruptcy data after the 1997 financial crisis. The results, of the MCLP approach in our Korean bankruptcy prediction study, show that our method performs as well as traditional multiple discriminant analysis or logit analysis using only financial data. In addition, our model??s overall prediction accuracy is comparable to those of decision tree or support vector machine approaches. However, our results are not generalizable because our data are from a special situation in Korea.     

Long-horizon event studies and event firm portfolio weights: Evidence from U.K. rights issues re-visited

Empirical results, in long-horizon event studies, are sensitive to whether equal- or value-weighting schemes are used to form event firm portfolios. In this paper we propose, as a first step, an evaluation of the economic value to investing in an equal-weighted and a value-weighted event firm portfolio prior to the event study. Using tests for mean-variance spanning we find in our data a significant improvement in an investor's investment opportunity set to investing in an equal-weighted portfolio. We then re-visit the long-run post-offer performance for rights issuers in the U.K. where we find, as in other studies, differences in both the magnitude and statistical significance of abnormal performance for value-weighted and equal-weighted event firm portfolios. We then use the results from our first step to provide an economic rationale for interpreting our results. A general conclusion we draw is that it may be useful to first ascertain, in long-horizon event studies, the economic value of portfolio weighting schemes as this can then provide some guidance to the use of a specific portfolio weighting scheme and thereby to interpretation of often conflicting results.     

A Corporate Social Responsibility Framework for Accounting Research

Over the past two decades, there has been growing interest in corporate social responsibility (CSR) among accounting scholars. As a testament to this growing interest, two review papers on CSR were published last year in accounting journals. Implicitly guiding hypothesis development in CSR studies is the notion of a conflict between shareholders and stakeholders. We define CSR in terms of a win-win situation for shareholders and stakeholders: a CSR framework for strategic business purposes. We provide evidence supporting this outlook for CSR using cases pertaining to specific companies and findings from archival empirical studies. According to our CSR framework, resources allocated for CSR activity also help propel business strategy; as such, it is difficult to isolate CSR inputs and/or outputs due to problems of non-separability and multidimensionality. While measurement is a challenge, our framework nonetheless opens up various promising avenues for future research.

Literature review and challenging research agenda on politicians’ use of accounting information

Recent research on politicians’ use of financial and performance information is reviewed. Survey-based studies overestimate the frequency of this use; observational studies present a more accurate picture. A new and challenging research agenda is presented that will improve our understanding of the use and usefulness of accounting information. Implications for the real world of practice are discussed.     

The calling of a creative transdisciplinarity

A relational approach to the problem of interdisciplinary studies is presented and arguments made for rethinking our disciplinary identity from our experiential and aspirational vantage point of transdiciplinary participation. But transdisciplinary participation requires overcoming our disciplinary chauvinism and an openness to the perspectives of other disciplines. In transdisciplinary participation, the other perspective, the other disciplines, need recognition and invitation into the hard core of the disciplinary self and for this the method and weltanschauung of the conventional interdisciplinary research is not enough. Interdisciplinary research now calls for a transdiciplinary interrogation, opening and enrichment which transforms the pious hopes and waiting for interdisciplinarity into a calling of transdiciplinary striving.

Corporate diversification and shareholder value: a survey of recent literature

We survey the recent developments in the literature on corporate diversification. This literature is voluminous, diverse, and quite old. To make the task more manageable, we focus our attention on recent contributions to that subset of the diversification literature that is in our judgment most influential in setting the agenda for financial research. The study of diversification at the corporate level can be grouped into one of two bodies of literature: cross-sectional studies of the link between corporate diversification and firm value (i.e., the diversification discount) and longitudinal studies of patterns in corporate diversification through time. The prevailing wisdom among financial economists throughout much of the last decade has been that diversified firms sell at a discount and that the level of corporate diversification has been trending downward. However, recent research questions both these tenets and a number of studies now suggest that the diversification discount is either not due to diversification at all, or may be a result of improper measurement techniques. Furthermore, some researchers are now beginning to argue that previous attempts to assess changes in the levels of corporate diversification through time is also flawed as a result of biases built into the compustat database in combination with the use of noisy proxies for corporate diversification.
