Purpose This study aims to examine the relationship between the internal control manager attributes and the firms’ operational efficiency. The internal control manager designs and maintains the firms’ policies and procedures to certify the effectiveness of its internal control system. Design/methodology/approach The study is an empirical research based on a sample of public companies listed on the Korean Stock Exchange from year 2011 to 2015. The authors derive measures of operational efficiency using the data envelopment analysis tool. Findings This study shows that the operational efficiency increases with internal control managers’ task-related knowledge and diverse firm knowledge, consistent with human capital theory. Also, the results reveal that internal control managers, equity ownership has a curvilinear relationship with the operational efficiency, indicating that excessive managerial ownership can deteriorate the firm value. Originality/value While many studies have examined the association between the internal control system and financial reporting quality, this paper is differentiated from prior studies by focussing on the internal control managers’ personal attributes. This is important, as the internal control system is essentially built by internal control managers who are in charge. This study contributes to accounting literature by shedding light on the role of internal control managers in enhancing the firms’ operational efficiency.

Abstract This paper investigate whether compliance with the Sarbanes–Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX) Sect. 302 (financial reporting) and 404 (internal controls) enhances financial reporting quality (FRQ). This study focuses on EU publicly traded companies that are cross-listed in the US markets. Using a novel approach with respect to operationalization of the SOX, the empirical research integrated into this paper advances the understanding of financial reporting quality for both practitioners and policymakers. The study argues that financial reporting quality increased after SOX entered into force but, notably, we find that FRQ improves with compliance with SOX302 but not with SOX404. Examination of the latter relationship at the subsection level also reveals that compliance with certain SOX requirements is not satisfactory. We find that three out of six subsections of SOX302 are directly associated with financial reporting, while subsections (1), (5) and (6) of SOX302 are not related with FRQ, indicating that the management team, albeit not entirely, provides a reliable financial reporting systems. We also find that compliance with some SOX404’s subsections has been relatively low (i.e. subsections (1) and (3) of SOX404)), suggesting that corporations have not established and are not maintaining suitable internal control systems over financial reporting.

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of control self-assessment (CSA) on financial reporting quality by using CSA as a proxy of monitoring quality. CSA has an important feature that allows the employees themselves to become involved in the assessment of internal controls’ effectiveness. Moreover, CSA has two important monitoring functions. First, it can add value to internal auditing. Second, because all employees of operational units participate in the assessment of internal controls in CSA, that control environment is expected to be mature. The investigation of this study used data from 3,517 Japanese firms listed on the First Section, Second Section, Mothers, and JASDAQ of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. The result of 2SLS regression shows that CSA adoption has a negative relationship with the number of financial restatements and audit fees, and therefore, I conclude that CSA has positive consequences for financial reporting quality. This result indicates that the internal monitoring mechanism that continuously monitors internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) effectiveness and in which all employees participate has some positive effects on financial reporting quality. There are two reasons for this result. First, employees have easier access to negative information concerning ICFR effectiveness than outsiders and can share that information with the internal personnel in charge of monitoring (e.g., internal auditors). Moreover, CSA is expected raise an entity’s awareness of ICFR, that is, the control environment of ICFR components is made into an environment that prevents and detects impropriety in the accounting process.
