Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Integrating literature in marketing, finance and accounting, this study examines the impact ofa firms’ advertising share of voice (ASOV) on investors’ uncertainty about its future financialperformance, i.e., firms’ idiosyncratic risk.

The results reveal significant heterogeneity in the disclosure of customer metrics across firms and between industries. On average, in both industries, …
