5、 managerial ownership has a negative and significant effect on disclosure quality, but no significant relationship was observed between governmental ownership and disclosure quality. The results show that the governmenta

8、lders; it provides them with the necessary information to reduce uncertainty and helps them to make suitable economic and financial decisions (Amer, et.al, 2013). The main core of Agency Theory is that managers, as the a

9、gents of shareholders, may act in a way that does not result in maximizing the wealth of shareholders. Based on this theory, enough mechanisms of control and supervision should be established to reduce the contrast betwe

10、en the managers and the owners in a firm. One of these mechanisms is firm domination. If the mechanisms of firm domination work well, they will result in the reduction of opportunistic and jobbery behaviours of the manag

11、er and this can increase the quality of disclosure. Ownership structure (Governmental and managerial ownership) can be mentioned as one of the most important mechanisms of firm ownership. Therefore, it is expected that g

12、overnmental investors will have more motivation to supervise the processes of firm’s disclosure. Therefore, firms can increase the expectations of state investors that are one of the most important beneficiaries in Irani

13、an firms through increasing their disclosure quality. On the other hand, it seems that the firms which have very high management ownerships have lower disclosure quality compared to other firms. The reason for this fact

14、could be that based on the Agency Theory, managers are trying to maximize their own expected desirability. Therefore, they need useful information which they can obtain it easily and will not be willing to disclose the i

15、nformation properly and comprehensively. Also, the firms which do not have main owner and their owners are scattered will seek to provide the information needs of users by disclosing high quality information.2. Literatur
