Culture works on a broader canvas than many people would realize. The reporting and disclosure practice of firms is influenced by social and cultural norms that create a preference towards secrecy. In this book, I identify three dimensions of national culture that are linked to investors' payoff, and model strategic information disclosure as an equilibrium outcome of the interaction between the firm and investors.
