Cover Story: In the current scenario of regulatory changes, the disclosure of risks is essential to sustaining business legitimacy and reputation simultaneously. The way risk is expressed verbally in business narratives can attract considerable investor attention. Thus, this study aims to analyze the impact of the tone of risk reporting narratives on the market value of companies. Using a sample of Portuguese non-financial companies, we show that stylistic characteristics, such as overconfidence and traits of heroism, are perceived negatively by market participants. The article shows that a company’s market value can be strategically optimized by the tone of the managers’ speech through a balance between benefits and disclosure costs. View this paper
