This table presents the regression results examining the moderating effect of audit committees’ compliance (AUDIT_COM) on CSR disclosure in family-controlled and politically connected firms. Detailed definitions of variables are provided in  Appendix 1 Table A1. We use AUDIT_COM as an alternative proxy of AUDIT. All regressions control for industry and time fixed effects.
