The hypothesis testing using the multiple linear regression indicate that auditor reputation and risk management committee were having a significant positive relationship with risk disclosure index. The insignificant results in profitability, leverage and managerial ownership were believed because the lack of samples number and pool sample from Indonesia and Malaysia which may influence the relationship between independent variables and dependent variable.
