Studies suggest that when a language requires grammatical marking of future events, speakers prefer immediate payoffs and engage in less future-oriented behavior.

In this paper, we consider the relationships among corporate accountability, reputation, and tax behavior as a corporate social responsibility issue.

Finally, we consider whether reputation serves as an accountability mechanism for corporate tax behaviors (...) |

Our multivariate regression results show that the number of countries with strong investor protection/high ethical standards in the FDI host country portfolio is negatively related to tax (...) |
