Hand-collected data reveal significant cross-country differences in CSR contracting details.

We find that European companies' performance has not improved substantially since the Directive came into effect in 2017, nor have they improved compared to US companies. Thus, the evidence suggests that the Directive has not improved European companies’ social and environmental performance.

One interpretation is that abnormal audit fees reflect economic bonding which decreases audit quality, while the other interpretation is that they are associated with unobserved audit efforts and audit risk. We argue that long-term abnormal audit fees clarify mixed evidence, as they reflect the gradual formation and development of both economic bonding and sustained auditor efforts over time. We examine the effect of long-term abnormal audit fees on audit quality by focusing on client's future stock price crash risk. Using 42,604 firm-year observations of U.S. firms, we find that sustained positive abnormal audit fees (consistently positive long-term abnormal audit fees) are negatively associated with future stock price crash risk, supporting the auditor effort argument and negating the economic bonding argument. We also find weak evidence that current-period abnormal audit fees are positively associated with future stock price crash risk, supporting the audit risk argument. Overall, our evidence shows that the magnitude and the pattern of long-term abnormal audit fees jointly affect audit quality in mitigating a client's bad news hoarding behavior.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47996,"journal":{"name":"British Accounting Review","volume":"57 1","pages":"Article 101555"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143593059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because audit committees have become increasingly over-burdened, we examine the impact of the busyness of audit committee members, measured via members’ service on other boards, on risk factor disclosures. We find firms with busy members issue disclosures that are of lower quality (i.e., less readable and less focused on firm fundamentals). Further, we find that firms with busy members are more likely to issue timely updates to disclosures. However, these updates are more likely to be vague—implying they are inconsequential to the market. We find these results are primarily driven by service in other non-audit committee roles. In additional cross-sectional tests, we find that our results are strongest when there is more uncertainty or complexity in the business environment. Finally, additional specifications and tests show that our results are robust to concerns related to endogeneity.
