Abstract

This study examines the impact of ownership structure on the timeliness of corporate internet reporting (TOCIR) index in the case of non-financial firms listed on the Kuwait Stock Exchange (KSE) by using a sample of 80 firms in 2019 and 4 ownership variables, namely, ownership concentration by large shareholders, ownership concentration by institutions, ownership concentration by the government, and ownership concentration by families (individuals). The results indicate that ownership concentration by large shareholders and ownership concentration by the government affected TOCIR, whereas ownership concentration by institutions and families (individuals) did not. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first study that examines the impact of ownership concentration on the timeliness of the corporate internet reporting in Kuwait.
