It explores how ESG transparency influences corporate financial reporting behavior. Research Method - This study uses data from Thomson Reuters, covering 86 IDX-listed companies that disclosed ESG information during the 2019-2023 period.

Companies with higher revenue levels are more effective in leveraging ESG disclosure to enhance transparency. Implication - This study offers a novel contribution by examining the influence of ESG disclosure on earnings management in Indonesia, while also considering company revenue levels as a comparative factor. The findings hold important policy and practical implications, especially for regulators and corporate management, in understanding the broader impact of ESG practices on the integrity of financial reporting.]]>
