description | The purposes of this research are (1) to know the importance level of voluntary corporate governance
disclosure (VCGD) in investor version and (2) to know the factual VCGD which is done by
public companies in Indonesia and (3) to test determinants of VCGD existence in annual reports
of public companies in Indonesia. The determinant of VCGD is a set of corporate governance
mechanisms i.e. ownership structure and control mechanisms of the organ of the company, including
(1) the concentration of ownership, (2) institutional ownership, (3) the percentage of
tradable shares, (4) the proportion of independent commissioners, and (5) the independence of
the audit committee.
To know the rate of VCGD’s importance, the questionaires was distributed to investors by email.
The mean score was used to indicate the importance level of each VCGD’s item in investors
version. Based on this result then the relative disclosure index was calculated. A total of 74
annual reports of companies which was chosen by purposive sampling method. To test the determinants
of level of VCGD, regression analysis was used.
The results show that: (1)The capability and integrity of board of director and public access of
companies’ information are the two most important items based on investor ’s opinions; (2) As a
whole, public companies in Indonesia have higher level of VCGD then China’s which has shown
by Yuen, et al. (2009); (3) The percentage of tradable shares (public ownership) is the only
independent variable that has a positive and significant, while the other independent variables
show no significant effect. This study provides empirical evidence for policy makers and regulators
of Indonesia to improve the corporate governance mechanisms and transparency of public
companies. These findings also contribute to improving the understanding of disclosure behavior
among companies listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI). |
