Abstract
In family firms, the decision to voluntarily disclose individual supervisory board compensation induces confidence in the family firm's governance system, but may also compromise a family's efforts to keep exclusive control. Drawing on socioemotional wealth (SEW) research, we investigate family influence on a firm's voluntary disclosure decisions while distinguishing between different types of firms: non-family, true family (TFF), and lone founder firms (LFF). Our findings demonstrate the complex influence of two control-enhancing factors, family CEO and high ownership concentration, on disclosure decisions.
