2、n Chinese Listed CompaniesAbstract The voluntary information of listed companies is based on corporate image, the investor relates, which is to avoid lawsuit risk besides the compulsory information disclosure. The information, which the companies disclosed on their own initiative, is the important p

3、art of disclosure information. It is an effective way that demonstrates their core competitive ability. The author analyzed the problems on voluntary information disclosed, which existed in Chinese mainland listed company, proposed the suggestion of constructing supervision system which listed compa

5、re difficult in more and more listed companies. In order to catch the scarce resource-the capital, companies tend to choose the way of Voluntary information Disclosure. Listed companies,with voluntary to disclose the information refers to corporate image, the investor relation, avoid lawsuit risk be

6、sides the compulsory information disclosure. However, the supervision system is not good enough; the information disclosed voluntarily is hard to be proof the truth. Therefore, it becomes more and more important to build the supervision system with voluntary information disclosure for listed compani

7、es.2. Motivation of Compulsory information disclosure Information, the Voluntary disclosure, is the executives in listed companies on personnel benefit to disclose on own initiative. According to the economic theory of the economic man rationality, the superintendents balance the behavior and do not

8、 take, completely based on the benefit and this behavior which is the costing. The superintendents decision-making is also based on the cost benefit analysis, if the voluntary information disclosure brings the benefit is larger than the cost, then the superintendent can carry on voluntarily disclose

9、d, otherwise, the superintendent rather does not carry on the voluntary information to disclose, their manners will change with the cost income relations changing. (Kai Xiang, 2004) With the China capital market gradually development, the business management authority can reduce the average capital

10、cost, enhance the financial analyst and investors interest, enhance company confidence level, improve investment relations, stand out company competitive advantages, enhance company stocks market fluidity, but also may reduce the companys lawsuit risk ,because the disclosure is not enough and so on,

11、 by disclosing voluntary information besides the compulsory information disclosure. The China capital market information disclosure also can gradually move to the stage of paying equal attention to voluntary and compulsory disclosure, not the simply regarding of the compulsory disclosure, the volunt

12、ary information disclosure will certainly to be the effective way,by which listed companies can demonstrate the core competitive ability, communicate with the stakeholders, and describe the company future. (Xianzhong Song, 2006)3. Content of Compulsory information disclosure Listed companies, with v

13、oluntary to disclose the information is refers to corporate image, the investor relates, avoid lawsuit risk except for the compulsory information disclosure. Learning from foreign listed companies experience of disclosing information voluntarily , and according to the situation in China, the listed

14、companies voluntary disclosure of information include: The forward-looking information, based on the companys “core competence”. It contains the operation,the business plan, strategic planning, business environment and so on. All of information can help investors to make rational investment judgment

15、s and decision-making; Information communicated with the market intermediaries and investors or the evaluation information from them; Information of human resources. Under the conditions of the knowledge economy society, human capitalbecomes more and more important. Particularly in the high tech, hi

16、gh-growth companies, employees are the companys most valuable asset. Research shows that these companies were significantly better than other companies,in the above-mentioned aspects of the voluntary disclosure of information; According to the accounting standards of the conservative principles, the

17、re is also lack of proper disclosure rules or low in requirements disclosure, which is useful for the investment decision-making, such as fair value; Corporate governance, environmental protection and social responsibility do not have mandatory disclosure information, because of complexity from the

18、measurement and disclosure (Derong Zhang, 2004). 4. Main problems exist in Compulsory information disclosure 4.1 Low Voluntary Disclosure Rate and low initiative A number of listed companies regard voluntary disclosure of information as an additional burden, rather than a kind of obligation or the r

19、ight, which should be given to the shareholders. Thus they will be passive to disclose the information, thats to say, they will take less disclosure as less as possible. With time going by, the concept of this understanding is accepted by people, so that the deviation in the information disclosure m

20、akes listed companies in a passive response. The main reason is that the listed company is too worry to tell the public the secret in its management, and thus the disclosure of information creates a psychological fear and evasive to them. 4.2 Lack of integrity of Voluntary information disclosure Tod

21、ay, Chinese listed companies practice of disclosing information voluntarily is not satisfactory. Many listed companies are reluctant to disclose, and some listed companies only disclose the companys financial information;but the bad news or involved matters with a certain risk, or other seriously ma

22、tters, the companies are kept silent. Moreover, many listed companies do not disclose fully credibility, hoping the investors rely on the “popular”, then to help them succeed .Chinese investors are not maturity, particularly in the processing, handling and analyzing information. Therefore, it is ver

23、y difficult to judge the value of the company through the signal transferred by the company. 4.3 The voluntary disclosure of false information Generally speaking, the voluntary information disclosure has high credibility. To the non-mandatory requirements information, managers often disclose the les

24、s likely to lead to the disclosure of risk information for reducing the risk of litigation and avoiding legal sanctions. In addition, the main motive of high-quality enterprises disclosing the information to the investors is to convey the signal quality of enterprises, so as to reduce monitoring cos

25、ts. Voluntary information disclosure generally has higher quality. However, the absence of mandatory disclosure is as strict guidelines as regulate, and authorities have the tendency of opportunism, prone to the problem of moral hazard. Whats more, the poor quality of the enterprises are based on th

26、e theory of signal transduction, transmission of false information, the voluntary disclosure of information is not the same to the mandatory information , as to undergo a rigorous audit. And voluntary disclosure of information is difficult to guarantee the quality. 4.4 Content of voluntary informati

27、on disclosure is not standardAt present, mainly Chinese listed companies are the compulsory disclosure of information, and voluntary disclosure of information in some documents are scattered, in reality, Chinese listed companies ,disclosing voluntarily information, can not meet regulators, securitie

28、s analysts and investors demand regardless of content or quality. Chinese listed companies in the voluntary disclosure of information content norms. The China Securities Regulatory Commission issued the public offerings stock, the disclosure of corporate information content and format standards of t

29、he relevant provisions of 1-6 in the annotated Open-here, although voluntary disclosure of information to the left of the room, but the lack of specific guidelines and the corresponding policy support, the overall level of the listed companies to disclose information voluntarily is low. Therefore, C

30、hinese voluntary disclosure of information is worthy of paying attention and needs to be solved. 5. Improve Supervision System of Voluntary information Disclosure in listed companiesAs growing competition of capital in the market and the gradually standardization of legal system, there will be a gro

31、wing trend of voluntary information disclosure for adapt with the complex and ever-changing and highly uncertain economic environment. For the problems existing in Chinese listed companies voluntary information disclosure, and learning from the practical experience on foreign listed companies, the a

32、uthor makes the following recommendations: 5.1 Actively encourage and protect listed companies voluntarily disclose information With the gradually maturation of Chinese capital market, on the basis of the management company completing the mandatory disclosure of information provided voluntary disclo

33、sure of information. Therefore, the regulatorydepartments should encourage listed companies to voluntary disclosure of information, add clauses in the policies and regulations, encourage listed companies to disclose the voluntary information besides existing laws, regulations and rules, meet the inv

34、estors growing demands. At the same time, in order to avoid some of the companys management should not be faced litigation risk and other problems, regulators need to study and formulate relevant policies for the companys voluntary disclosure of information act to protect them. Deliberate manipulati

35、on andaccidental factors belong to different nature of the situations and treat them differently. It should investigate the law liability to parties in the first case. Otherwise, only the listed companies have adequate evidences and can explain reasonably, dont look into their liability. 5.2 Strengt

36、hen supervising and managing prevent to disclose the false information at will and protect the market order Once the voluntary disclosure information published, it must accept the essential surveillance and the restraint equally with the compulsory disclosure information. But voluntary information d

37、isclosure is still lack essential surveillance rules currently, should establish a set of voluntary information disclosure supervising and managing system, standard voluntary information quality. For example: to establish voluntary information assurance and compensation system, to perform the heavy

38、fine to the enterprise which misleads the investor and so on. The negotiable securities supervising and managing department and the Exchanges should strengthen supervising and managing to voluntary information disclosure market, prevent to disclose the false information at will, protects the market

39、order. The voluntary information disclosure supervising and managing should contain following several aspects: First, integrity, listed companies voluntarily disclose of the information are both positive information, also includes the negative information; Second, systemic, whether listed companies

40、from different angles, through various information disclosure to reveal the same, whether formed a distinctive pattern of voluntary disclosure of information; Third, dynamic, long-term voluntary listed companies to disclose certain information, and constantly adjusted to improve the reliability of i

41、nformation; Fourth, widespread, as long as all investors equal access to all listed companies to voluntarily disclose information; Fifth, the comparative, whether the compulsory information disclosure is mandatory or not, it can be the standards of judgment for the quality of reference standards. 5.

42、3 Giving full attention to the role of market intermediaries to establish the authority of the disclosure of company information quality evaluation system Listed companies should strengthen communication with institutional investors, brokers, securities analysts and other market intermediaries. Unde

43、rstanding the companys external information needs to reduce the companys asymmetric information through voluntary disclosure of information. Giving full attention to the role of market ntermediaries, establish the listed company disclosure information quality evaluation system by market intermediari

44、es. Acts according to the specialized knowledge and after the company interior information full understanding and the analysis by the market facilitating agency which it has makes the omni-directional appraisal opinion, regularly promotes voluntary information disclosure quality rating results, prov

45、ides certain authority to information disclosure quality appraisal opinion for the investor, shows the risk by the police which the ordinary investor possibly can face. (HongYin, 2004). 5.4 Strengthen CPA audit to voluntary disclosure of information CPA audit is an independent, objective and imparti

46、al system, it can ensure the credibility of the accounting information. Voluntary Information is provided by the authorities. With speculative risks, the authenticity and reliability of voluntary information should be tested by certified public accountant. Although the audit of voluntary information

47、 is not as strict as the mandatory information, it should also have forensic capabilities by registered accountants carrying out the necessary scrutiny, to improve and guarantee the credibility of its information. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate and improve audit rules on voluntary disclosur

48、e of information, and to increase violation of professional ethics or legal responsibility for the responsibility of a certified public accountant. 5.5 Introduction of voluntary disclosure of information regulatory documents On a global scale, the voluntary disclosure of information is an irresistible trend of development. With the increasing speed of the change of the economic environment, the requirement for the accounting information relevant are higher and higher, by the extraneous user, the existing compulsory disclosure information will
