Firm characteristics in this study are measured based on size and leverage. This study's panel data are from financial reports of 23 companies in the consumer goods industry listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2014 to 2018 reporting period. By using panel data regression analysis, this study finds that company size does not affect voluntary disclosure. On the other hand, leverage positively affects voluntary disclosure, while institutional ownership has a negative effect. This study implies that voluntary disclosure is more determined by the need to win the competition and rationalize investors regarding their leverage. The company's size does not determine the voluntary disclosure level. The government needs to encourage the companies to reveal more information for better market within the pandemic through the Financial Services Authority. On the other hand, institutional ownership that has a negative effect on voluntary corporate disclosure shows that investors from other institutions tend not to have healthy controls in encouraging companies to make voluntary disclosures. Future research is expected to reexamine corporate voluntary disclosure determinants through other variables and use more than one method to ensure their robustness results.
