“…A possible explanation for not find any short market reaction to KAM disclosure is that the KAM disclosure maybe be anticipated by other information and/or are previous known by the audit committee and adequately addressed by auditors. When it comes to market reaction to KAM disclosure, most of the studies are experiments (Boolaky & Quick, 2016;Craver & Trinkle, 2017;Christensen, Glover & Wolfe, 2014;Dennis, Griffin & Zehms, 2019;Köhler, Ratzinger-Sakel & Theis, 2016;Sirois, Bédard & Bera, 2018). Another contribution is for standard audit setters, confirming the usefulness of the KAM disclosure, although not being supported by a short model as it is used by Gutierrez et al (2018) and Lennox, Schmidt and Thompson (2019) in the UK, and by Bédard et al (2018) in France.…”
