dc.description.abstractThis research approaches corporate tax avoidance as a sustainability problem and addresses the following research question: ‘What is the linkage between the Global Reporting Initiative, as a sustainability disclosure standard, and corporate tax avoidance?’ By addressing the relationship between GRI sustainability reports and effective tax rates based on a sample stock listed organizations, the contribution of corporate activities by disclosing sustainability information according GRI-standards on the occurrence of tax avoidance was examined. Presented results displayed evidence of the existence of an asymmetric effect between GRI sustainability disclosure and corporate tax avoidance.en_US
