Abstract

En este estudio se analiza el nivel de revelación de información voluntaria de activos intangibles; asimismo, identifica los factores que explican su divulgación por parte de los bancos que cotizan en la Bolsa de Valores de Panamá durante el periodo 2005-2009. La información es registrada en un índice que contiene 158 indicadores, distribuidos en cinco categorías: capital humano, estructural tecnológico, estructural organizativo, relacional del negocio y relacional social. Las tres hipótesis que se plantean son: H1 existe una relación positiva entre el tamaño y la extensión de revelación de información de activos intangibles; existe una relación positiva entre los años de constitución y la extensión de revelación de información de activos intangibles; existe una relación positiva entre el nivel de endeudamiento y la extensión de revelación de información de activos intangibles. Los resultados indican que para los bancos panameños es más importante revelar información sobre intangibles en el orden siguiente: capital relacional del negocio, relacional social, estructural organizativo, humano y estructural tecnológico. Cabe aclarar que la fue aceptada excepto en la categoría capital estructural tecnológico; la fue aceptada en todas sus categorías, mientras que la fue rechazada.
