Abstract

This study empirically investigates the relation between information quality measured by accruals quality and the KOSPI200 index rebalancing. The accruals quality is used for the proxy of information quality and is estimated by employing the Francis et al. (2005) model. The result shows that there is a statistically significant difference between additions group and deletions group. The average information quality of deletions group is substantially lower than that of additions group. In addition, the regression analysis shows that the relationship between accruals quality and a dummy variable for changes in the KOSPI200 index composition is negative and statistically significant. This result implies that additions to the KOSPI200 stock index improves information quality and relieves the information risk of firm which results in the amelioration of information asymmetry. On the other hand, deletions from the KOSPI200 index result in the deterioration of information quality. These results are consistent with Merton (1987).

본 논문은 KOSPI200 지수구성 종목의 변경이 해당 기업의 정보의 질에 미치는 영향에 대해 실증적으로 분석하였다. 정보의 질은 발생액의 질을 이용하여 대용하였고, 변수의 추정에는 Francis et al.(2005)의 모형이 사용되었다. 실증분석의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 지수종목에 진입한 기업과 퇴출된 기업들 사이에는 정보의 질에 유의미한 차이가 존재하며, 진입한 기업들의 정보의 질이 보다 좋은 것으로 확인되었다. 둘째, 지수종목으로의 진입변수와 발생액의 질 사이에는 통계적으로 유의미한 음(-)의 상관관계가 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과들은 기업이 지수에 편입될 경우에는 정보위험이 완화되어 정보비대칭이 개선되는 반면에 지수에서 퇴출되면 해당 기업의 정보의 질은 낮아져서 정보비대칭이 악화된다는 것을 의미한다. 결론적으로 기업이 지수종목에 편입되거나 퇴출되는 일은 해당 기업의 정보비대칭에 상당한 영향을 미치는 중요한 사건이라고 판단된다.
