ABSTRACT For a sample of nonfinancial and non-utility firms from the European Economic Area in 2005–2017, we find that a firm’s business strategy is a determinant of the amount of risk factor information in the annual report. Firms with an innovation-oriented prospector strategy report more about their risk factors than firms with an efficiency-oriented defender strategy. This is because, first, these innovation-oriented prospectors face greater risks and uncertainties and the regulator and enforcement institution expect them to report these accordingly in the annual report. Second, given the discretion the firms have in disclosing risks, prospectors are more likely to engage in voluntary disclosure. It seems that the benefits outweigh the costs of revealing proprietary information. Further, our findings reveal that business strategy influences the coverage of the main risk topics and risk disclosure complexity. Additionally, the influence of business strategy on risk disclosure is stronger for small, young, and low-technology firms.
摘要通过对2005-2017年欧洲经济区非金融和非公用事业企业的样本分析,我们发现企业的经营战略是年度报告中风险因素信息量的决定因素。采用创新导向的探矿者战略的公司比采用效率导向的捍卫者战略的公司报告更多的风险因素。这是因为,首先,这些以创新为导向的勘探者面临着更大的风险和不确定性,监管机构和执法机构希望他们在年度报告中相应地报告这些风险和不确定因素。其次,考虑到公司在披露风险方面的自由裁量权,探矿者更有可能自愿披露。披露专有信息的好处似乎大于成本。此外,我们的研究结果表明,商业策略会影响主要风险主题的覆盖范围和风险披露的复杂性。此外,小型、年轻和低技术公司的商业战略对风险披露的影响更大。

Abstract This paper investigates the impact of Directive 2014/95/EU on both the quantity and quality of non-financial disclosure (NFD) and its relationship with corporate financial performance (CFP) in 20 Italian listed companies. The current study considers both the annual reports (AR) and social and environmental reports (SER) released two years prior (2015–2016) and two years after (2017–2018) the Directive’s application. A manual content analysis was conducted and OLS regression analyses were carried out to evaluate the relationship between NFD and CFP, measured by ROA, ROE and Tobin’s Q. The findings show that the Directive affected the quantity of NFD, but not the quality, and that a transfer of information occurred from the different reporting mediums considered. Overall, NFD quality is significant and positively associated with CFP when measured by ROA and ROE, however, the mandatory NFD quality following the Directive does not show a significant relationship with CFP.
摘要本文研究了2014/95/EU指令对20家意大利上市公司非财务披露数量和质量的影响及其与公司财务业绩的关系。目前的研究考虑了该指令应用两年前(2015-2016)和两年后(2017-2018)发布的年度报告(AR)和社会与环境报告(SER)。进行了手动内容分析,并进行了OLS回归分析,以评估通过ROA、ROE和Tobin’s Q测量的NFD和CFP之间的关系。研究结果表明,该指令影响了NFD的数量,但没有影响质量,并且信息传递来自所考虑的不同报告介质。总的来说,当通过ROA和ROE测量时,NFD质量是显著的,并且与CFP呈正相关,然而,遵循该指令的强制性NFD质量与CFP没有显示出显著的关系。

ABSTRACT Over the last decade, the body of literature on the relationship between corporate governance mechanisms (board composition and its characteristics) and ‘corporate social reporting’ has seen increasing attention from academics. However, no significant studies attempt to systematise the body of literature highlighting the advancement of knowledge in this field. The main objective of this study is to identify the flow of knowledge in this area by applying a chronological approach to the traditional Systematic Literature Review (SLR), which is called Systematic Literature Network Analysis (SLNA). We found 21 papers that constitute the Main Path of knowledge and four clusters from the co-occurrence analysis of authors’ keywords: i) ‘The influencing factors of social disclosure’; ii) ‘Assurance practices and CSR reporting’; iii) ‘Integrated reporting and Sustainability reporting’; iv) ‘The relationship between intellectual capital disclosure and corporate governance’; v) ‘The relevant theories.’ Finally, future avenues of research are suggested.
在过去的十年中,关于公司治理机制(董事会组成及其特征)与“公司社会报告”之间关系的文献越来越受到学术界的关注。然而,没有重要的研究试图系统化的文献体突出的知识在这一领域的进步。本研究的主要目的是通过对传统的系统文献综述(SLR)应用时间顺序方法,即系统文献网络分析(SLNA),来确定这一领域的知识流动。通过对作者关键词的共现分析,我们发现21篇论文构成了知识的主要路径和4个聚类:1)“社会披露的影响因素”;ii)“鉴证实践和企业社会责任报告”;iii)“综合报告和可持续发展报告”;“智力资本披露与公司治理的关系”;v)“相关理论”。最后,提出了今后的研究方向。

On Translating Goodwill 论商誉的翻译

Abstract The IASB’s plans to reform accounting for goodwill prompt this paper’s discussion of the translation of the signifier ‘goodwill’ (and the related terms: depreciation, amortisation and impairment). As a translation problem, this is unusually interesting because there are at least three different types of goodwill but all with the same signifier in English. The paper begins by noting the difficulties which biblical translators have had with ‘goodwill’. It then outlines the different types of accounting goodwill, recording the many terms used in eight languages. This includes a study of national regulations and the specific problems of translating IFRS. The discussion is extended to include the approaches in different languages about whether or not to distinguish depreciation from amortisation and how to translate ‘impairment’. Implications for researchers and standard-setters are drawn. This includes the need for terms which are accurately defined and which have been chosen with an eye on potential translations problems.
国际会计准则理事会(IASB)改革商誉会计的计划促使本文讨论了能指“商誉”(以及相关术语:折旧、摊销和减值)的翻译。作为一个翻译问题,这是非常有趣的,因为至少有三种不同类型的善意,但在英语中都有相同的能指。本文首先指出圣经译者在“善意”方面遇到的困难。然后,它概述了不同类型的会计商誉,记录了用八种语言使用的许多术语。这包括对国家法规和翻译国际财务报告准则的具体问题的研究。讨论扩展到包括关于是否区分折旧和摊销以及如何翻译“减值”的不同语言的方法。对研究人员和标准制定者的启示。这包括需要准确定义术语,并且选择术语时要考虑到潜在的翻译问题。

Do Risk Disclosures Matter for Bank Performance? A Moderating Effect of Risk Committee 风险披露对银行业绩重要吗?风险委员会的调节作用

Abstract This study examines whether risk disclosure and risk committee are associated with major banks’ performance worldwide. We also test whether the composition of a risk committee moderates (i.e. strengthens or weakens) this relationship. Using 1760 bank-year observations of 160 banks across 45 countries for the years 2006–2016, we find that risk disclosure and risk committees are associated with a bank’s overall performance. In addition, the findings suggest that the composition of a risk committee moderates the relationship between risk disclosure and bank performance. The results support the contention that risk disclosure and risk committee can be used as a channel to optimise the performance of a bank. Conclusions reflect on how the agency, signalling, and resource-based theories inform this phenomenon. This paper advances our understanding of the role of risk committee characteristics on the relationship between risk disclosures and bank performance from both theoretical and empirical perspectives, suggesting risk committee is not a panacea for risk monitoring. However, the existence of a strong risk committee is vital for effective risk governance. Findings from this research may have valuable practical and policy implications, particularly in the banking sector.
摘要本研究考察了风险披露和风险委员会是否与全球主要银行的业绩有关。我们还测试了风险委员会的组成是否会缓和(即加强或削弱)这种关系。通过对45个国家的160家银行在2006年至2016年的1760个银行年度的观察,我们发现风险披露和风险委员会与银行的整体业绩有关。此外,研究结果表明,风险委员会的组成调节了风险披露与银行业绩之间的关系。研究结果支持了这样一种观点,即风险披露和风险委员会可以作为优化银行业绩的渠道。结论反映了代理、信号和基于资源的理论是如何影响这一现象的。本文从理论和实证两个角度加深了我们对风险委员会特征在风险披露与银行绩效之间关系中的作用的理解,表明风险委员会并不是风险监测的灵丹妙药。然而,一个强大的风险委员会的存在对于有效的风险治理至关重要。这项研究的结果可能具有宝贵的实践和政策意义,尤其是在银行业。

From voluntary to mandatory non-financial disclosure following Directive 2014/95/EU: an Italian case study 根据2014/95/EU指令,从自愿到强制性非财务披露:意大利案例研究

Abstract This study investigates the non-financial disclosure in an Italian banking group following Directive 2014/95/EU over a period of eight years, from its voluntary (2013–2017) to mandatory (2018–2020) implementation. The paper relies both on primary and secondary data sources. It first adopts a content analysis on non-financial reports while considering other relevant available material. Second, the study relies upon semi-structured interviews and seminars to gather primary data. The analysis has been interpreted in light of institutional theory in order to understand the institutional forces driving non-financial disclosure. Results show that non-financial disclosure significantly increased in quantity after the regulation; however, the improvement in quality is fairly low, with the exception of themes relevant to the company under investigation. Through the lens of institutional theory, it emerges that an interplay of institutional mechanisms co-existed within the bank, during two periods of reporting for different topics of disclosure.
摘要本研究调查了意大利银行集团根据2014/95/EU指令在八年内的非财务披露情况,从其自愿(2013-2017)到强制(2018-2020)实施。该论文同时依赖于主数据源和辅助数据源。它首先对非财务报告进行内容分析,同时考虑其他相关的可用材料。其次,该研究依靠半结构化访谈和研讨会来收集初步数据。为了理解驱动非财务披露的制度力量,本文根据制度理论对该分析进行了解释。研究结果表明,非财务信息披露在监管后数量显著增加;然而,除了与被调查公司相关的主题外,质量的改善程度相当低。从制度理论的角度来看,在不同披露主题的两个报告期内,银行内部共同存在着制度机制的相互作用。

ABSTRACT This study explores the going concern statement, readability and length cues as indicators of Italian private companies in default. The results indicate that the disclosures of defaulting companies contain (1) low readability; (2) greater uncertainty and confusing information; and (3) a lengthy going concern statement compared to non-defaulting firms. This is the first study to analyse the going concern statement and its correlation with Italian default by comparing International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and Italian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
摘要本研究探讨了持续经营声明、可读性和长度线索作为意大利私营公司违约的指标。研究结果表明,违约公司信息披露存在:(1)可读性低;(2) 更大的不确定性和令人困惑的信息;以及(3)与未违约公司相比,持续经营声明冗长。这是第一项通过比较国际财务报告准则(IFRS)和意大利公认会计原则(GAAP)来分析持续经营报表及其与意大利违约的相关性的研究。

Start-up Firms and Discretion Over Deferment of Disclosure: An ex Ante and an ex Post Perspective 创业公司与延迟披露的自由裁量权:事前和事后的视角
IF 2.8 Q2 Economics, Econometrics and Finance Pub Date : 2021-05-23 DOI: 10.1080/17449480.2021.1923765

Abstract We examine deferment in the reporting of financial statements using an alternative measure of reporting delay based on start-up firms’ discretion over the length of the first reporting period. We explore discretion, exercised both by local GAAP adopters and by IFRS adopters, for a sample of Greek start-up firms using both an ex-ante and an ex-post research design. In addition to various factors previously considered by the accounting literature (i.e. performance, leverage, voluntary auditing, and the GAAP regime), we find that liquidity constraints, shareholders’ pressure, and increased noise in accounting measures are associated with a start-up firm’s reporting choice over the length of the first reporting period.
摘要我们根据初创公司在第一个报告期内的自由裁量权,使用报告延迟的替代衡量标准来研究财务报表的延迟报告。我们探索了当地公认会计准则采用者和国际财务报告准则采用者行使的自由裁量权,以使用事前和事后研究设计的希腊初创公司为样本。除了会计文献先前考虑的各种因素(即业绩、杠杆、自愿审计和GAAP制度)外,我们发现流动性约束、股东压力和会计措施中噪音的增加与初创公司在第一个报告期内的报告选择有关。

Abstract As of 2014, the extended auditor’s report has been introduced for all Dutch PIEs, including but not limited to listed entities. With this explorative study, we provide early insights into how reporting on key audit matters and materiality are applied in practice and whether this differs per category of Dutch PIEs. It appears that the Dutch PIE market is a rather heterogeneous market, including a large number of finance and holding companies, which also results in considerable differences regarding the numbers and subjects of key audit matters and the levels and bases of materiality, which could affect the informative value of auditor’s reporting. Therefore, the question arises whether reporting on key audit matters and materiality has the same relevance for all PIEs, while the results may also give reason to make these elements mandatory for companies that are not yet covered by the PIE-definition.
摘要截至2014年,已为所有荷兰PIE(包括但不限于上市实体)引入了扩展审计师报告。通过这项探索性研究,我们对关键审计事项和重要性的报告在实践中的应用以及这是否因荷兰PIE类别而异提供了早期见解。荷兰PIE市场似乎是一个相当异质的市场,包括大量的金融和控股公司,这也导致了关键审计事项的数量和主题以及重要性的水平和基础方面的巨大差异,这可能会影响审计师报告的信息价值。因此,出现了一个问题,即关于关键审计事项和重要性的报告是否对所有PIE具有相同的相关性,而结果也可能为尚未纳入PIE定义的公司提供强制执行这些要素的理由。
