摘要:The objective of the paper is to test the impact of corporate disclosure on the cost of equity capital for firms listed on Vietnam’s stock market. We use the Botosan (1997) scoring methodology and the residual income valuation model to measure disclosure level and the implied cost of equity capital. Our findings suggest that, taking into account other determinants, disclosure has a significant reducing impact on the cost of equity capital.
