This study examines the influence of normative (e.g., voluntary sustainability reporting guidelines) and coercive (e.g., mandatory corporate governance [CG] requirements) pressures on the relationship between corporate sustainability disclosure (CSD) and financial performance (FP), focusing on the moderating role of audit committee characteristics. Using 1863 firm‐year observations from 207 companies listed and unlisted on the Amman Stock Exchange (2014–2022), the study employs panel quantile regression and two‐stage PQR to address endogeneity issues. Results show that CSD adoption increased after the 2018 sustainability guidelines, positively affecting FP. Audit committee size and independence strengthen the CSD–FP link, particularly after the 2017 CG reforms, indicating coercive pressures' role in enhancing governance. However, frequent audit committee meetings and technical expertise may weaken the CSD–FP relationship. The study emphasizes governance frameworks shaped by normative and coercive pressures as key to maximizing the financial benefits of sustainability disclosures for firms.

在新兴经济体,制度压力如何重塑企业可持续发展信息披露与企业价值之间的联系?审计委员会职能的调节作用

本研究考察了规范性(例如自愿性可持续发展报告指南)和强制性(例如强制性公司治理 [CG] 要求)压力对公司可持续发展披露 (CSD) 和财务绩效 (FP) 之间关系的影响,重点关注审计委员会特征的调节作用。该研究使用来自安曼证券交易所 207 家上市和非上市公司(2014-2022 年)的 1863 家公司年度观察,采用面板分位数回归和两阶段 PQR 来解决内生性问题。结果显示,在 2018 年可持续发展指南之后,CSD 的采用率有所增加,对 FP 产生了积极影响。审计委员会的规模和独立性加强了 CSD-FP 的联系,尤其是在 2017 年 CG 改革之后,表明强制压力在加强治理方面的作用。但是,频繁的审计委员会会议和技术专长可能会削弱 CSD 与 FP 的关系。该研究强调,由规范和强制性压力塑造的治理框架是最大限度地提高公司可持续性披露的财务利益的关键。
