Abstract

Our study approaches corporate governance in the context of the financial reportingprocess. From a theoretical point of view we draw on literature arguing that informationaltransparency connects corporate governance mechanisms and the financial reporting process withbenefits for stakeholders. The empirical analysis being developed focuses on developing acorporate governance disclosure index for companies listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange.Looking at similar studies in literature we further consider potential determinants of the disclosureindex being computed. The employed research methodology relies on regression analysis. Theobtained results document a low level of corporate governance disclosure and the external auditorbelonging to the Big4 as a determinant of sample companies‘ corporate governance disclosurepractices.
