The findings suggest that cross-border investment will complex financial reports and worsen information asymmetry between managers and outside investors In addition, in the condition that higher ration of investing in OECD blacklist countries, it will be more pronounced that higher degree of foreign direct investment decrease earnings value relevance, indicating investing location will influence earnings value relevance.
