活动简介:
In the context of China's proactive disclosure enforcement regime, we examine the effect of publicly enforced mandatory disclosure on stock price synchronicity. Using an event study approach and difference-in-differences estimation, we find that stock price synchronicity significantly diminishes for firms in the focus-sector firms relative to the nonfocus-sector firms after the enforcement of an industry-specific disclosure regulation. In addition, this negative association is more pronounced in firms with more opaque financial reporting, firms with lower financial statement comparability, firms with weaker private oversight, and firms in low-competitive markets. We also find several real effects in the capital market relating to the unobservable impounding of firm-specific information into stock prices, including an increase in investor attention, an increase in stock liquidity, and a decrease in the cost of capital.
