Effect of Corporate Governance, Firm Characteristic, Disclosure of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) on Firm Value

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of corporate governance, firm characteristics, disclosure of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on firm value. It analyzes the firms which became the participants of the 2014 Sustainability Report Award. Corporate governance is proxied by the proportion of independent commissioners, while firm characteristic is proxied through the age of the firm. Meanwhile, the disclosure of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the sustainability report is stated in the Corporate Social Responsibility Index (CSRI). The firm value was calculated using the Tobins’Q formula. The hypothesis was tested using linear regression. The test results show corporate governance and firm characteristics have a positive effect on firm value. Meanwhile, corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure has a positive but insignificant effect on the dependent variable. If all independent variables are tested simultaneously, all three variables have a positive effect. However, disclosure of corporate social responsibility (CSR) has no significant effect.Keywords: corporate governance, firm characteristics, corporate social responsibility (CSR), firm value, sustainability report Pengaruh Corporate Governance, Karakteristik Perusahaan, Pengungkapan Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) terhadap Nilai PerusahaanAbstrak: Penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengaruh corporate governance, karakteristik perusahaan, pengungkapan corporate social responsibility (CSR) terhadap nilai perusahaan.
