Abstract
► This study examines the relation between institutional ownership and conservatism. ► Higher ownership by monitoring institutions is associated with more conservative financial reporting. ► This positive association is more pronounced among firms with more growth options and higher information asymmetry. ► Lead-lag tests suggest that ownership by monitoring institutions leads to more conservative reporting, rather than the reverse.
