Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: This study explored the current situation of disclosure of information on social responsibility and the impact of the disclosure level of information on social responsibility on the financial performance of enterprises listed on the Vietnamese stock market. We used a combined method to measure the disclosure level of information on social responsibility in the annual reports of 289 enterprises in Vietnam in 2016. The financial performance was measured by three indicators: ROA , Tobin's Q, and stock prices. The research results showed that the disclosure level of information on social responsibility stated in the annual report was medium, only at 37.235%. Regarding control variables, financial leverage was inversely related to financial performance, while the size of business did not affect the financial performance. However, when considering the factors of business size, both financial leverage and industry factor affected the disclosure level of information on social responsibility.
