Based on a sample of 100 firms in 2009, the results indicate that the level of institutional shareholdings in aggregate has a positive association with the extent of sustainability reporting. However, when we dichotomized the institutional investors by their investment horizons, we find that the level of shareholdings by pension funds, which represents the long-term institutional investors, and the level of shareholding by short-term institutional investors, represented by the mutual funds and banks, are not linked to sustainability reporting.
