Abstract

The research aim is to evaluate whether there is a relationship between sustainability and financial reporting quality for the companies operating in the BIST Manufacturing Sector as of 2015-2018. The independent variable of the model created within the scope of the research is financial reporting quality, the dependent variable is a categorical variable; sustainability report publishing companies and non-publishing ones. Panel data analysis was applied to estimate the model. Consequently, the financial reports of sustainability report publishing companies were found to be of higher quality than non-publishing ones. Enterprises with low profit management practices provide high quality financial reports and are more transparent to stakeholders with sustainability reporting. Information asymmetry was reduced as businesses increased their transparent reporting practices towards stakeholders.
