We analyze the financial statements of 26 banks on liquidity, concentrations of assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet items, related-party transactions, and unconsolidated entities. Our results indicate that banks are not ensuring essential compliance with all disclosure items in national standards. Banks audited by Big-4 affiliates display better compliance in financial statements than those audited by non-affiliates, with some exceptions. Our research provided evidence that, in contrast to general understanding and expectation, Big-4 associates in developing country may not absolutely outperform local firms. We also find systematic non-compliance with provisions of standards that would be useful for inferring group membership despite compliance with other disclosure provisions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101074,"journal":{"name":"Research in Accounting Regulation","volume":"29 2","pages":"Pages 145-151"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.racreg.2017.09.006","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79799578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A common trait among the reporting systems is a growing movement toward comparability and accountability. Global pressures initially motivated the push toward stand-alone CSR reporting and now toward integrated reporting. Integrated reports (IR) include financial, economic, governance, and social information in one report. In the United States, integrated reporting is voluntary and only a small number of companies have issued IRs to date. This report provides a history of CSR reporting and then examines whether the <em>non-financial</em> economic, governance and social indicators identified in prior literature as being of interest to retail investors (Cohen et al. 2011) are disclosed in the pioneering U.S. IRs. Descriptive results indicate the initial IRs cover predominately indicators of economic and social performance with little focus on governance. Further analysis indicates that the IRs examined do not, as a rule, provide the information most highly desired by investors (i.e. market share, executive compensation, and product safety). This study provides a baseline for companies preparing IRs and for regulators (i.e. SEC, FASB) in the context of determining future disclosure regulations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101074,"journal":{"name":"Research in Accounting Regulation","volume":"29 2","pages":"Pages 172-176"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.racreg.2017.09.010","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126771269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study empirically investigates whether this mandatory change of OCI presentation format achieves FASB's stated objective of improving the transparency of financial reporting. First, ASU 2011–05 is found to greatly reduce the continuity of OCI from one period to the next. As OCI items are transitory in nature, the increased OCI volatility makes firms’ inherent risk more transparent to investors. Second, ASU 2011–05 is found to significantly increase the ability of net income to influence stock prices. As OCI and net income are intertwined, the more salient presentation of OCI enables investors to better interpret earnings. Supporting FASB's position that OCI items need to be more prominently displayed, these findings suggest that the new standard improves transparency and usefulness of the reported OCI information.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101074,"journal":{"name":"Research in Accounting Regulation","volume":"29 2","pages":"Pages 139-144"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.racreg.2017.09.005","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"137408679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
