Voluntary Disclosure and Market Valuation of Sustainability Reports in Korea: The Case of Chaebols

Abstract: This paper investigates whether chaebol firms tend to issue corporate social responsibility (CSR) reports more than non-chaebol firms. Based on previous studies documenting chaebols’ tunneling activities at the expense of other shareholders, we anticipate that chaebol firms are more likely to voluntarily disclose their CSR reports even if investors may discount their values because CSR disclosure is an effective means of window dressing. The empirical results support our expectations. We find that chaebol firm… Show more

“…Research conducted in Finland found a significant positive effect between sustainability report disclosure and firm value (Schadewitz & Niskala, 2010).
