Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between family involvement and the readability level of the MD & A (Management Disclosure & Analysis) released by the company. This study uses 1795 final samples from firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in the period 2010-2018. We tested the research hypothesis using ordinary least square regression (OLS). This was done using the Stata software by adding a fixed effect for industry diversity in order to strengthen the study results. This study used two proxies of the family firm where there is the involvement of family members at the management level and related to the ownership of company shares. Both of these proxies show consistent results indicating that family firms tend to release less readable MD&As. Furthermore, the language differences were also tested in this study. Apart from the presentation of the MD&A in English or Indonesian, family firms still present reports with lower readability. This study provides a perspective to the authorities regarding the family firm's governance intended to help improve existing regulations.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to look into issues and challenges associated with the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards for Small and Medium Enterprises (IFRS for SMEs) or so-called MPERS (Malaysian Private Entity Reporting System). Using keywords like "IFRS for SMEs," "MPERS in Malaysia," and so on, this study examines existing literature in the form of articles in the Emerald database, as well as press releases and publications published by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA). The MPERS version of IFRS is a shortened version of the complete IFRS. It reduces the substance of the whole IFRS by about 85%. Certain topics are excluded because they are not normally relevant to SMEs. SMEs, on the other hand, still consider IFRS for SMEs to be excessively complicated. MPERS is a performance-based standard, not a cost-based one. Almost everything must be of reasonable value. As a result, businesses owning investment properties or biological assets will have to pay extra for the valuation of these assets at fair value. For preparers, there are two major obstacles to overcome. Constant changes in standards, as well as a scarcity of skilled accountants, are also issues. Some data suggests that the decision usefulness model is inappropriate for smaller businesses. SMEs have a small number of account users, lack accounting competence to deal with complexity, and are managed by their owners. Furthermore, for SMEs, a reporting approach focused on stewardship and employing simplified historical cost accounting would be more appropriate.

Abstract

Research aims: This study examines the relationship between political connections and family ownership toward CSR activities disclosure.Design/Methodology/Approach: This study employed 624 Indonesian public companies on the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) list for 2010-2018. The researchers used OLS (Ordinary Least Squares) regression by considering the fixed effect diversity of industry, year, and type of GRI to examine the relationship between political connections and family ownership on CSR disclosure.Research Findings: This study discovered that companies with political connections disclosed more CSR activities because they desired to bind themselves with the government, instruments of legacy, and social motivation. However, family firms were not found to have a significant relationship with CSR disclosure. In addition, the strong family ownership in the firm impacted the reduced strength of political connections, thereby reducing the company's CSR activities disclosure. Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study is interesting because the researchers combined the issue of the politically connected board and family firms, which are frequently found in the context of Indonesian companies. The researchers expect this study to enhance corporate board characteristics and CSR disclosure literature. Practically, the researchers expect this study could provide useful information for investors to make investment decisions. Furthermore, this study provides insight for regulators, who need a view of how political connections and family companies exist in responding to the regulations they set. Therefore, the existing regulations can be improved. Yet, this study was limited to the proxy of political connection based on local regulation of politically exposed person (PEP).
