Corporate Governance, Intellectual Capital and Firm Performance
<p>This paper investigates the impact of corporate governance and intellectual capital on firm<br />performance in Indonesian-listed firms. Using a balanced-panel of 120 Indonesian-listed<br />firms, this study employs a balanced panel method, using non linier IV 2SLS and non linier<br />IV-GMM. All variables, apart from commissioners, directors, education and capital<br />employed efficiency exhibit a non significant impact on Tobins’Q, while all variables are<br />statistically non significant for ROA. The findings are less conclusive than that of previous<br />studies in developed countries. This study provides recent evidence for the corporate<br />governance and intellectual capital in affecting firm peformance of listed-firms in Indonesian<br />Stock Exchange. Though most listed-firms in Indonesia is owned by group or family, the<br />appointment should be strictly complied to the regulations set, as current evidence indicates<br />that independent commissioners and directors have no impact on firm performance, hence an<br />awareness of good corporate governance conduct should be massively disseminated.</p>
