Purpose of the study: This paper aimed to investigate the influence of risk disclosure on corporate value and investigate whether the effect of risk disclosure on corporate value is moderated by the level of independence of boards of directors. Methodology: Using an analysis of annual reports, the study depended on a set of balanced panel data derived from 13 banks listed on the “Amman Stock Exchange” (ASE) from 2014 to 2018. Main Findings: The empirical results indicated that the association between risk disclosure and the corporate value was significant but negative. To examine the influence of the moderating variable, hierarchical regression models were used. The results regarding the moderating effect indicate that board independence (BI) positively moderated the association between risk disclosure and corporate value. Applications of this study: The findings of this article can provide insights into the association between risk disclosure and corporate value and the moderating influence of the board of directors' independence on this relationship. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study is particularly beneficial for understanding the importance of risk disclosure between the management and stakeholders as well as understanding the importance of the board of director composition in enhancing the influence of risk disclosure on corporate value. Moreover, this is the first study to investigate the moderating effect of board composition (represented by board independence) on the association between risk disclosure and corporate value. |
