This study examines the impact of intellectual capital and corporate governance mechanism on banks’ performance both directly and also moderated effect. We used banks that were listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The bank’s performance was measured by risk-based bank rating while intellectual capital was measured by the coefficient of VAICTM (Pulic, 1998). The corporate governance mechanism was measured based on the size of boards of directors, the composition of independent director, CEO remuneration, managerial ownership, the effectiveness of audit committee and ownership concentration. The result of the study shows that banks’ performance was positively influenced by intellectual capital. However, corporate governance mechanism did not influence the banks’ performance, while the moderation effect of corporate governance mechanism on the relationship between intellectual capital and banks’ performance was not confirmed.

This paper aims to examine the effect of the characteristics of an audit committee on real earnings management in the Dutch context. Our sample is composed of 80 non-financial companies listed on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange during the period between 2010 and 2017. Four proxies are used to measure audit committee characteristics, namely, audit committee independence, financial expertise, gender diversity, and audit committee meetings. To test our hypotheses, we use a regression model to identify the influence of a set of audit committee characteristics on real earnings management after controlling for firm audit committee size, leverage, size, loss, growth and board size. Our analyses provide evidence that audit committee independence and gender diversity constrain real earnings management. Our findings also suggest that audit committee financial expertise reduces to some extent the likelihood of engaging in real earnings management. To the best of our knowledge, the Dutch context is not yet explored especially following the issue of the long-awaited new Dutch Corporate Governance Code in 2016 which has been updated for a long period in 2008. Therefore, corporate governance is a relevant topic in the Netherlands. This study contributes geographically to the Audit Committee and earnings management literature that examines another possible method, specifically, real earnings management.

Due to globalization and expansion in the world markets, the sensitivity of investor’s confidence has become a challenge especially in the wake of issues related to stock prices, earnings management (EM), the stability of income levels and corporate governance (CG) application. This study aims to explore the usefulness of four traits of corporate governance mechanism in constraining earnings management activities. By using five years’ observations of 109 textile companies listed on Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) for the period 2013-2017. Traits comprising of board size, gender diversity, board experience and qualification of board member are analyzed using Ordinary Least Square (OLS). Results of the study submit that board experience; finance qualification and business qualification have a negative significant impact on EM thus contends that experienced board members having business and finance qualification discourage earnings manipulation. While, positive and significant impact of board size on earnings management is an indication of loss of control due to its large size. Moreover, gender diversity and chartered accountancy are found irrelevant to EM in our case.

However, it could be reduced by practicing the good corporate governance mechanism which can adjust agent and principal’s interest. The objective of this study is to test the effect of good corporate governance mechanism, as reflected by institutional ownership, managerial ownership, presence of independent board and audit committee existence on the earnings management practice. Using sample from 62 companies in the manufacturing sector at the Jakarta Stock Exchange, which publish financial statement from 2005-2006. This study shows that good corporate governance mechanism insignificantly influence earnings management practice simultaneously.

In the context of the globalization and internationalization of economies, to efficiently attract financial and intellectual capital that is necessary for business sustainability, the mechanisms of corporate governance have to be based on gaining the trust of all the interested parties. These objectives require an organizational culture and a climate which is based on correctness, responsibility, transparency, and efficiency, in which ethical principles govern the spread of behaviors in the entire entity. This research identifies the relation between the corporate governance and the entities’ financial performance using the specific context of Romania. The findings of this study reveal new insights on the corporate governance and financial performance based on a sample of companies listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange. The results show a positive correlation between the net accounting results, earnings per share, and the duality of the CEO, and a negative correlation between price per share and the duality of the CEO.
