dc.description.abstract |
The paper examines the effects of recently introduced Statutory Audit and Corporate
Reporting Directives (SACORD) on compliance costs and risk taking of the EU banks. Using
data of 80 EU banks and 71 non-EU banks for the period 2004 to 2013, we estimate the
effects of SACORD regulation compliance costs, risk taking and quality of reporting. Our
results show that the economic effects of SACORD on audit fees are approximately 19 to 33
percent higher relative to the non-EU banks. We also find robust evidence of significant
increase in in total compliance costs. The findings are consistent with those reported in the
previous literature mainly for the US banks that regulation increases compliance costs.
Further, we find that post SACORD, there is a significant increase in risk-taking and a
decline in reporting quality. Findings suggest that the SACORD regulation does not appear to
have the desired effects of constraining risk-taking by banks. |
