Abstract
This article investigates the determinants of environmental disclosure and its effect on financial performance. Using a sample of 66 firms listed on Istanbul Stock Exchange during the period 2014-2018, we find that highly leveraged and larger firms, and firms with higher equity agency costs are more likely to disclose environmental information. However, the results indicated that profitability, industry type, information asymmetry, investment opportunities and business risk do not affect the probability that the firm will disclose environmental information. Finally, we find a weak evidence that environmental disclosure affects the financial performance of Turkish firms.
