讲座主题:Auditor Reputation Concerns, Human CapitalInvestment, and Audit Quality
主持人:李哲
摘要:This paper examines audit offices’ humancapital investment in response to a reputation loss and the resulting effect onaudit quality. We document that after client restatement announcements, auditoffices attempt to acquire human capital and talent by posting moreaudit-related job positions. The increase in job postings is concentrated amongmore senior and experienced positions, and follows restatements with negativemarket reactions. It is not driven by replacement hiring due to auditordepartures and is associated with more auditors joining the office. Auditpersonnel salaries also increase in response to client restatement announcements.These human capital investments reduce the contagion effect of low-qualityaudits and the losses in local market share, supporting improvements in auditquality and auditor reputation.

Topic: Does Board Network Discipline Narrative R&D Disclosure?
Speaker: Rong Huang, Fudan University
Time: Friday, April 29 , 10:00 -11:30 a.m. Beijing time
Location: Microsoft Teams Online Conference Room
Abstract
Prior studies document an on-average positive association between board effectiveness and corporate disclosure without considering the nature of the information. We focus on the narrative R&D disclosure, which contains highly uncertain and risky information. We expect that well-connected directors constrain narrative R&D disclosure due to their high reputational concerns and superior knowledge. Using director centrality to measure board networks and text-based R&D disclosure to measure R&D narratives, we find that firms with better-connected directors disclose less narrative R&D information. This association is stronger for firms with: (1) higher disclosure costs, (2) more opportunities to interact with directors at other firms, and (3) more director connections to institutional investors and industry peers. Our results remain robust to employing the staggered adoption of the Universal Demand laws and the Inevitable Disclosure Doctrine as quasi-natural experiments, measuring the content of narrative R&D disclosure, and using alternative measures of board networks. Collectively, our findings suggest that well-connected directors can serve as an important discipline mechanism of firms’ narrative disclosure.
