Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores financial reporting incentives created by an economy's institutional structure. The underlying premise of this analysis is that a country's legal/judicial system, securities laws, and political economy create incentives influencing the behaviour of corporate executives, investors, regulators etc. in the markets. Relations between key characteristics of country-level institutions and the asymmetric recognition of economic gains and losses into earnings are empirically analyzed. |
