Measuring the Effectiveness of Continuous Disclosure Policy

Most of investors are concerned about the return they will receive by investing in the company, especially after the global financial crises during which most of the investors earned negative returns on their investments. The return on investment tells us about the performance of the company in comparison to its competitors. This enables the managers, shareholders and potential investors to make informed decision based on the manager capacity to efficiently utilize financial resources of the company. Moreover, the return on investment also affects the future viability of the company. If a company is not able to generate enough returns from their investments in different projects, then it can be a threat to company's existence as it will not be in a position to sustain its operations due to mounting losses and debts. In this book, I examine the assessment of the market of the comparative profitability of all the announcements made in the field of R&D, Information Technology and Capital Expenditure by Australian listed firms over the period of 1990 to 2012.
