Effect of Mandatory IFRS Adoption on Cost of Debt in Turkey

Abstract: The ultimate aim of financial reporting is the communication between companies and their stakeholders. To better serve this ultimate aim, International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) required all European Union listed companies to adopt International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) starting from January 1, 2005. Some of other emerging countries like Turkey also complied with this requirement.

“…Several studies provide evidence on the benefits of the use of the IFRS. Consistent findings across these studies were that the adoption of the IFRS improves a firm's stock liquidity, reduces the cost of capital, and improves corporate performance (Daske, Leuz, & Verdi, 2008;Persakis & Iatridis, 2017;Ozkaya, 2018;Wook-bin & Yuk, 2018). Hope, Jin, and Kang (2006) argued that if firms adopted the IFRS, the quality of their financial reports will increase and hence the capital market will gain a better reputation and hence attract more foreign investments.…”

“…The literature has examined the consequences of IFRS adoption and provided evidence that IFRS improves stock market development (Dumontier & Maghraoui, 2006;Daske, Leuz, & Verdi, 2008;Naser, Al-khatib, & Karbhari, 2002;Persakis & Iatridis, 2017;Ozkaya, 2018;Wook-bin & Yuk, 2018). In our research, we tested to see if the adoption of the XBRL and IFRS together provide higher improvements in the stock market development than the adoption of each of them.…”

“…Some scholars have focused on the effects of IAS adoption and the cost of the debt and debt markets. For instance, Ozkaya (2018) found evidence that after the IFRS adoption in Turkey, firms in the sample have a significantly lower cost of debt after the adoption year. Florou and Kosi (2015) document positive economic consequences around the mandated IAS/IFRS adoption for corporate debt financing and, in particular, for bond financing.…”

“…Some scholars outlined an increase in comparability and transparency of information (Barth et al, 2012;Cascino & Gassen, 2015;Kainth & Wahlstrøm, 2021), while others show how the adoption of the IAS/IFRS improved the liquidity in the financial market (Coyring et al, 2007;Istiningrum, 2020). Still others underline beneficial such as the reduction of the cost of debt (Ozkaya, 2018) and the cost of equity (Li, 2010;de Moura et al, 2020).…”
