The table reports the results of OLS models with fixed effects for year and industry with other proxies for CSR disclosure and firm's value; standard errors are clustered by industry. The variables are described in  Appendix B. *, ** and *** indicate statistical significance at less than the 10%, 5% and 1% levels, respectively
