Description
This thesis examines stock market reaction following financial reporting information on Twitter. The results indicate that larger companies and companies closer to technology are more likely to adopt Twitter for financial reporting. Smaller companies receive greater benefits (reduction of information asymmetry) from this practice, as well as disclosing multiple financial reporting tweets. This study encourages frequent use of Twitter and other new Information Technology, to increase the visibility of small companies. This study provides new evidences to inform regulatory policy and promote ‘best practice’ guidelines for financial reporting on social media.
