The Role of the Manager?S Human Capital in Discretionary Disclosure
Posted: 2 Feb 2000
Abstract
Prior studies have characterized Verrecchias (1983) discretionary disclosure costs mainly in terms of competitive concerns. This study shows that separating the managers and the shareholders into two separate, self-interested beings also leads to disclosure costs, precluding discretionary disclosure in certain cases.
