This study aims to provide a conceptual study of the effect of earnings management on firm value by including corporate governance. as a moderating variable. This paper is a conceptual paper that discusses issues related to earnings management on firm value and the role of corporate governance in minimizing earnings management practices so as to increase firm value. Previous theoretical studies have shown that earnings management is effectively controlled by the corporate governance system and performance. In addition, the results of previous studies found empirical evidence that there is a positive relationship between earnings management and firm value. From the theoretical discussion and previous research, it is concluded that earnings management practices have a positive effect on firm value as moderated by corporate governance.

Today, to make investment decisions, investors analyze the stock in the stock market and an information source used by them isthe financial report of the related firms. In some cases, the report may be prepared in accordance with management policies, which is known as an earnings management.Earnings management will affect intelligence value and consequently have negative impact. Due to these issues, in this study, the relationship between VRof earnings, earnings management and corporate governance is discussed. Using a sample of listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange and the regression model, the results showed that the ownership of institutional investors has reduced the earnings management, but compared to major shareholders and company's audit by the National Audit Office, it has increased earnings management.The results also show that there is no significant relationship between management and the stock price as an indicator of measuring the VR of earnings.

This paper aims to examine whether earnings management strengthens the causal links between corporate governance and firm performance. It examines the association between corporate governance and real activity-based earnings management and extends it to firm performance. This study involves 1,104 listings on the Korean Stock Exchange and finds that real activity-based earnings management decreases if firms have a well-established governance system, and such earnings management could strengthen the causal link between corporate governance and firm performance as measured by Tobin’s Q. Our study results are the first empirical evidences that real activity-based earnings management is effectively controlled by a corporate governance system and that it has links between corporate governance and performance. This provides the importance of corporate governance which could effectively constrain real activity-based earnings management, such that eventually influences the firm’s performance. In particular, it provides useful insights into corporate structures in which ownership is highly concentrated. Our findings are of great importance for Korea, in which the predominant business structure for large enterprises is that of the chaebol (equivalent to the Japanese keiretsu), which consists of conglomerates of many smaller companies and in which the structure of corporate governance is that of owner control.

Purpose In the shadow of global financial crisis, practice of earnings management can be hazardous for the growth and development of an economy, especially for a developing economy like India. This empirical study is performed to analyse the presence of earnings management practices in Indian public and private commercial banking industry. This study also aims at developing a framework for the three-way relationship existing between the variables of corporate governance, earnings management practices and firm performance. Design/methodology/approach Data have been collected for a period of 11 financial years (2003-2013) from Prowess (Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy) 4.14 database. A bank-based accrual model has been used for calculating earnings management practices. OLS regression has been used for analysing degree of interdependence among variables of corporate governance, earnings management practices and financial performance. Findings The analysis supports the fact that there is the existence of income increasing earnings management practices in Indian commercial banks. It is also observed that corporate government practices (viz. board characteristics, audit practices and performance-based remuneration) basically work as restricting variables for earnings management practices. It is evident from the analysis that market-based firm performance variables (viz. PE ratio, yield and profit after tax) are significantly related to earnings management and corporate governance system. Practical implications The finding of this study will help in monitoring and controlling fraudulent earnings management practices existing in Indian commercial banks. Originality/value This study is the initial research about the presence of earnings management practices in Indian commercial banks.

This paper analyses the theme of the corporate governance models of Italian utilities companies and explores how the changes of ownership structure after a merger affects financial performance. The objective of this paper is to study whether the mergers of utilities are effective for companies to be more competitive. We compare the financial performance of four Italian utility listed companies listed (A2A, IRIDE, HERA and ENIA) before and after the merger. Specifically we analyse six financial ratios (P/L for period, Profit margin, EBITDA, ROE, ROA and Gearing). Our results show that utility mergers are effective to create a more competitive firm because of the changes in the ownership of the company and consequently in the corporate governance system. Results also indicate that a listed merger company has a higher financial performance those pre-merger companies.
