This study investigates the conformity to Benford’s Law of the information disclosed in financial statements. Using the first digit test of Benford’s Law, the study analyses the reliability of financial information provided by listed companies on an emerging capital market before and after the implementation of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The results of the study confirm the increase of reliability on the information disclosed in the financial statements after IFRS implementation. The study contributes to the existing literature by bringing new insights into the types of financial information that do not comply with Benford’s Law such as the amounts determined by estimates or by applying professional judgment.

Using minute-by-minute TV advertising data covering some 300 firms, 327,000 ads, and $20 billion in ad spending, we study the real-time effects of TV advertising on investors’ searches for online financial information and subsequent trading activity. Our identification strategy exploits the fact that viewers in different U.S. time zones are exposed to the same programming and national advertising at different times, allowing us to control for contemporaneous confounding events. We find that an average TV ad leads to a 3% increase in EDGAR (Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval) system queries and an 8% increase in Google searches for financial information within 15 minutes of the airing of that ad. These searches translate into larger trading volume on the advertiser’s stock, driven primarily by retail investors. The findings on retail investor ad-induced trading are corroborated with hourly data from Robinhood, a popular retail trading platform. We also show that ads induce searches and trading of companies other than the advertiser, including of close rivals. Altogether, our findings suggest that advertising originally intended for consumers has a nonnegligible effect on financial markets. This paper was accepted by Karl Diether, finance.

The international event in this study is expansionary monetary policy issued by the Federal Reserve in the form of quantitative easing policies that were announced in three stages, on 26 November 2008, 4 November 2010, and 14 September 2012 (Indonesia Stock Exchange trading day). The study analyzed the abnormal return and trading volume activity occured at each event period. Observation period in this study used 120-day estimation period and 11-day event period at each stage of the quatitative easing announcement. The event study was done in Indonesian capital market represented by 127 shares that are catagorized as LQ45 index and actively traded in each event period. The assumption that Indonesian capital market is co-integrated with international capital market can make the announcement of quantitative easing policy as positive information for investors in Indonesia. The analysis results show that a significant positive abnormal return around the event date and a significant increase in the intensity trading activities after the quantitative easing announcement, occured. The market test results show that Indonesian capital market has efficient information in a semi-strong form, so that the investors cannot use the published information to get profits (positive abnormal return) in a long run (around the date of the event only).   Abstrak Penelitian ini merupakan studi empiris untuk menganalisis peristiwa internasional dan dampaknya terhadap pasar modal Indonesia. Peristiwa internasional yang diteliti adalah pengumuman kebijakan moneter ekspansif yang dikeluarkan oleh Bank Sentral Amerika Serikat, yaitu quantitative easing yang dilakukan dalam tiga tahapan pengumuman pada tanggal 26 November 2008, 4 November 2010 dan 14 September 2012 (hari perdagangan bursa di Indonesia). Penelitian dilakukan dengan menganalisis abnormal return dan trading volume activity yang terjadi disetiap periode peristiwa. Penelitian ini menggunakan periode pengamatan yang terdiri dari 120 hari periode estimasi dan 11 hari periode peristiwa disetiap tahapan pengumuman quantitative easing. Analisis studi peristiwa dilakukan pada pasar modal Indonesia yang diwakili oleh 127 saham yang pernah masuk dalam kategori indeks LQ45 dan secara aktif diperdagangkan disetiap periode peristiwa. Asumsi bahwa pasar modal Indonesia terkointegrasi dengan pasar modal internasional menyebabkan pengumuman kebijakan quantitative easing dapat menjadi informasi yang positif bagi pemodal di Indonesia. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa terjadi abnormal return positif yang signifikan di sekitar tanggal peristiwa dan peningkatan intensitas perdagangan yang signifikan setelah peristiwa pengumuman kebijakan quantitative easing. Hasil pengujian efisiensi pasar menunjukkan bahwa pasar modal Indonesia efisien secara informasi dalam bentuk setengah kuat sehingga pemodal tidak dapat menggunakan informasi yang dipublikasikan untuk mendapatkan keuntungan (abnormal return positif) dalam jangka waktu yang lama (hanya di sekitar tanggal peristiwa).
