First Step in Engagement in Term of Listening to Overseas Investors Is Seeking Disclosure in English
- Companies with the highest Disclosure in English scores have the highest ROE, Tobin’s Q, Market Capitalization, and Foreign Shareholder Ratio, while companies with the lowest scores have the lowest values.
- Companies with the highest Disclosure in English scores also show generally higher Board Practices and Key Actions. Both Disclosure in English and these practices are the result of engagement efforts.
