The paper is written as an empirical test on the indirect effect of Commissioner Board Monitoring on firm performance through environmental performance as mediation variable. Research sample is non-financial firms that participate into Performance Assessment Program (PROPER) and that also list at Indonesian Stock Exchange. Commissioner Board Monitoring consists of few attributes such as: Commissioner Board Size, Independent Commissioner Board, and Commissioner Board’s Frequency of Meeting. Environmental performance is measured with the use of PROPER by the Ministry of Life Environment and Forestry for Indonesian Republic. Firm performance is proxied with Return on Asset (ROA) and Tobin’s Q. Research gains some results. Commissioner Board Monitoring has a positive effect on both environmental performance and firm performance. Environmental performance has a positive effect on firm performance. Commissioner Board Size has an indirect effect on firm performance through environmental performance. All these findings support agency theory and stakeholder theory. Any firms attempting to maximize performance shall balance the interest of shareholder (firm owner) and stakeholder.

Corporate governance (CG) is key to enhance firm’s value. The purpose of this research is to examine effects of various aspects of corporate governance on firm’s value. We used secondary penal data of 100 companies on Pakistan Stock Exchange for the period: 2010 – 2016. Findings revealed that among other aspects of CG, managerial ownership and board size have significant influence on the value of a firm. Among controlled variables, firm size and firm ages were also found significant in firm’s value. We are convinced that findings of this study would help addressing agency issues through effective corporate governance measures. This study has come up with some practical implications as well. It is suggested that for better firm performance and increasing efficiency the board size may be kept at minimum.

The object of this study uses companies listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange and Philippine Stock Exchange using agency theory. This study uses quantitative approach and multiple linear regression to analyze the data. The target populations of this study are manufacturing companies that listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange and Philippine Stock Exchange in 2014-2018 which are equal to 615 and 200 year observations. The results in Indonesia showed that board size, women, and firm age had negatif effect on idiosyncratic risk. On the other hand, firm size do not show the effect on idiosyncratic risk and firm performance had positive effect on idiosyncratic risk. However, the results in Philippine showed that board size had positive effect on idiosyncratic risk.

Purpose This paper aims to find empirical evidence of bank ownership structures on bank reputation through the mediating role of sustainability reporting (SR) in Indonesian banking sector. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses purposive sampling to obtain 279 observations from 43 listed banks in Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2012–2018. This study uses structure equation modelling analysis in the AMOS software and intervening test from the Sobel test to investigate the direct and indirect effect in this research model. Findings The empirical results evidence: foreign, government and public ownership exhibit significant positive effect on SR but not with family ownership; SR positively affects bank reputation; SR appears as a mediator in which foreign, government and public ownership have a positive effect on the bank reputation through the indirect effect of SR while family ownership exhibits insignificant result. Practical implications The practical contribution of this study is that SR is proven to increase bank reputation through the legitimation from the public, so the management must properly pay attention by publishing this report. Originality/value This study provides several novelties to the literature: SR is used as a mediator in the relationships between bank ownership and reputation in which there is very limited studies investigating these aspects, especially in Indonesia. In addition, most SR studies in Indonesia still focus on SR determinants rather than its impact; customer deposits are used as a measurement basis of the bank reputation as it reflects better the trust and perception of the market so that it is relevant with the reputation level.

This paper examines the intricate link between unobservable characteristics of directors on the corporate board and firm performance. It aims to extend the literature on corporate governance and firm strategic performance from the perspective of emerging African economies. A mix of performance measures were used (Tobin Q, return on assets, and share price) and unobservable characteristics were captured as a stochastic element or heterogeneity of observable board characteristics (board activity, gender diversity, size, and independence). The study applied non-linear generalized auto-regressive conditional heteroscedasticity model to examine the data set consisting of 299 firm-year observations from 23 financial firms listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange from 2006 to 2018. Positive skewness and leptokurtic distribution were found for all the variables. Correlation matrix revealed no multicollinearity, as the highest value was 0.2386. Empirical results suggest that unobservable characteristics significantly and positively influence firm performance as measured by return on assets and share price. This is because the coefficient of the lagged-value of the variance scaling parameter is positive and significant at the 1% level. However, with respect to Tobin Q measure, the result was positive but not significant at the 5% level. Implicitly, the result is sensitive to performance proxies. Accordingly, this study concludes that unobservable characteristics drive firm performance. It is recommended that boards and regulators should pay attention to unobservable characteristics.

This study examines effects of board composition on firm performance among 24 selected companies which are listed on the National Stock Exchange. It strives to understand the influence of corporate governance by testing 3 variables of board composition namely – board size, number of independent directors and the number of female directors on a company’s profitability measured through the tool – Tobin’s Q. One-way Anova test is used to establish a relationship between each of the three variables of board composition with firm profits. The study is conducted over a period of 5 years from 2013 to 2018 and concentrates on the following sectors - Auto, Financial Services, FMCG, IT, Media, Metal, Pharma, and Realty. The results revealed a significant relationship between board size and number of independent directors with firm profits which meant a firm with a greater sized board or more independent directors also showed higher profits in comparison. While, no significant relationship was found between the number of women directors on a firms’ board and firm performance.

This study attempts to explore the effect of corporate governance parameters like board size and independent directors along with firm-specific characteristics such as age, size and profitability on the environmental performance disclosure of 38 National Stock Exchange (NSE) listed Indian non-financial companies for the period of 2013–2017. This study uses panel data analysis and finally documents a positive impact of board size and age of firm on the environmental performance disclosures of Indian companies. The study also finds a significant and negative effect of board independence on the environmental performance disclosure of such companies. The study based on its findings questions the role of independent directors as an internal regulatory body and suggests external regulatory specifications for better environmental performance and its disclosure to the public.
