Who Gets to Play Dirty? Using Legitimacy Theory to Examine Investor Reactions to Differing Modes of Corporate Tax Minimization*

Abstract: This study examines how information about a corporation's tax minimization activities and primary operations jointly influence investor behavior. Prior research identifies fear of investor backlash as a primary curb on corporations' tax minimization. However, evidence for such reactions remains mixed. Drawing on the psychological framework of legitimacy theory, we predict and find that the interaction between operations-level validity and tax-level propriety influences investor behavior.

“…Dengan kata lain profitabilitas berpengaruh secara positif terhadap penghindaran pajak (Maitriyadewi and Noviari 2020;Mao and Wu 2019;Aminah, Chairina, and Sari 2017).
