Data was collected from companies listed on Vietnam?s securities market for five years from 2013 to 2017. The sample included two groups of companies: one, which followed EFAP and second which did not follow these practices. Based on quantitative research method, this study measured the relationship between levels of EFAP and CFR. The results reveal a close relationship between the EFAP and CFR levels of the current year and that of the following years(s).
