Özet:

 

This paper concerns oil and gas companies operating in Libya. It investigates the
 relationship between the level of environmental disclosure and company
 characteristics. The researchers identified a number of characteristics that
 associated with companies’ environmental disclosure, namely, company size,
 company privatisation, company age and company’s nationality. In the light of the
 empirical results it is noticed that almost all companies disclose some
 environmental information. In addition a significant positive association was
 found between level of environmental disclosure and company size, company
 privatisation and company’s nationality. The study provides further evidence that
 these characteristics are important and have an impact on the level and value of
 environmental disclosure. On the other hand it was found that age of company is
 insignificant and negatively related to the level of environmental disclosure.
