Up until the mid 1980s multinational enterprises usually published only consolidated worldwide accounts. This changed in subsequent years with increasing legal requirements to publish separate national accounts for each subsidiary. Obviously this exposes the subsidiary to the risk of takeover by a competitor and/or to intervention on the part of the host government. This book presents an authoritative and in-depth analysis of the disclosure issue from both theoretical and practical standpoints. The author describes the methods used to research and evaluate disclosure risks and benefits and presents much new thinking and many new research findings on this important topic.

An invaluable tool for the researcher in accounting history, this comprehensive database, structured in an accessible way, analyses over 1,200 articles from four mainstream accounting journals from the UK and USA. Each article (originally published between 1976 and 1985) was analysed in two ways: first, into empirical or conceptual categories and second, into one of twenty topic areas. The journals covered are Journal of Accounting Research, The Accounting Review, Accounting and Business Research and Journal of Business Finance and Accounting.
